    Moore Traditional School opens nature trail


    Students at Moore Traditional School and local dignitaries celebrated Earth Day 2013 by unveiling a nature trail that was three years in the making. U.S. Representative John Yarmuth joined students in Moores Nature Club for a ribboncutting ceremony on Mon., Apr. 22. The nature trail is located along the schools western property line and was once a dense thicket. However, Moore science teacher Tim Brennan and his daughter, fellow Moore science teacher Erin Brennan, worked with middle school students for several years to transform it into a trail that winds through about two acres of woods, crosses a small stream, and circles a massive tulip poplar. The route is now a certified wildlife habitat of the National Wildlife Federation. In the future, Tim Brennan hopes to add educational stations along the trail where students can study water, mosses, plants, and other features. He also plans to incorporate the area into environmental classes during the 2013-14 school year to complement Moores Environmental and Life Sciences Optional Program. Due the popularity of the project, Moores Nature Club membership has grown to more than 40 students.
