Friendswood, TX: Third Graders go the Whole Nine Yarns

Westwood Elementary, a CC! school, was recognized nationally last week for their character-building efforts through a third-grade knitting club. The group partnered with Save the Children to knit for newborns in Bangladesh and Malawi. 

School members were invited to lobby on Capitol Hill as well as to visit with the First Lady's chief of staff at the White House. Their story was featured on the front page of the Houston Chronicle.
