A visit from Lisa Jackson, Administrator of the EPA
Thanks to an email request from Mrs. Herbert, Lisa Jackson (Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency) paid a visit to Metairie Academy on August 26, 2010 to speak to our fourth and fifth graders. Ms. Jackson praised our students for being environmental stewards in programs such as LSU Coastal Roots and for learning how to be take better care of the Earth through the Earthkeepers program. It was an amazing experience for our students to be validated for their hard work by such an important government official.
