Woodford County Conservation Teacher of the Year
Julie Coy, WCMS Art Teacher, is the 2009 Conservation
Teacher of the Year for Woodford County. She not only
taught students art techniques to paint the rainbarrel (you see
on left, but she also made sure her students understood the
conservation concepts of protecting our soil, water, and
other environmental issues. Ms. Coy is not only an excellent
art teacher but a well-liked and respected teacher who goes beyond
expectations to take on special projects that will benefit her students,
school and the community.

to give one free CFL bulb to any Kroger customer that purchased one and signed
a pledge to "Change A Light, Change The World." Peggy C. Seal, WC Conservation
District Supervisor, talks to Judy Padgett about energy conservation.
Woodford County Conservation District sponsored an activity at all schools where
the students decorated grocery bags with Earth Day drawings.
