This is the best of all seven days to introduce readers to our student friend from the Environmental Studies Academy. This is the program run by dynamo Rona Zollinger out of Briones Alternative High School. Tuesday Maxine is one of the students assigned to helping our beaver cause, and she writes this introduction:
My name is Tuesday Maxine, I am a student of the Environmental Studies Academy; a unique school that is based on place-based learning, A method in which we learn from our environment and surroundings. We are very involved with our local community and spend a lot of our time out on the creek or up in the hills doing restoration work.
I love the Martinez Beavers. I feel the Beavers are a very important part of Martinez because they have brought a lot of the community together in an effort to keep them here. Not only that, but they add character to our quaint town. I am a dedicated student who is looking forward to helping these poor guys out.
Welcome Tuesday! We are thrilled you’re involved. We’d love to hear about ESA creek/watershed work and how we can help each other.
