Cheryl Arnett’s second-grade students at Sunset Elementary School pose during the 2010-11 school year with copies of the brochure they produced, The Deer Are Here to Stay, regarding the City of Craig’s deer population. The brochure will be highlighted in an upcoming national education publication, Smithsonian in Your Classroom.

On a regular workday, Sunset Elementary School teacher Cheryl Arnett reaches out to about 25 to 30 students. This fall, her lesson plan will expand well beyond the boundaries of her classroom door to impact hundreds of students, maybe more. And, it will include a little piece of Craig. Arnett was contacted two weeks ago by the Smithsonian Center for Education and Museum Studies of Washington, D.C., about the possibility of including part of her curriculum in its twice-yearly publication, Smithsonian in Your Classroom.
