To prepare for Dennis Wille's visit, the Lowell Playground Committee - with the fabulous cooperation of all the Happy Valley teachers - asked the Happy Valley/Lowell students to draw their idea of the ultimate playground.
Grassroots All the Way!
Lowell students Soleil, Ean and Clara raise money for the playground at their corner lemonade stand. (May 2008)
About Lowell
- Lowell Elementary School
- built in 1917, is a K-5 elementary school in Bellingham, WA. It is closed for the 2008-2009 school year for an estimated $4.5 million seismic retrofitting paid for by a voter approved bond measure. Parents, neighbors and children are using the school closure as an opportunity to replace the 30-year old playground and convert an asphalt play area into a grass field.
