Chesterbrook Academy Students in Chantilly "Bug Out" with Ladybug Release in Celebration of Earth Day

On April 22, Chesterbrook Academy Preschool and Chesterbrook Academy Kids Campus students in Chantilly got a little “buggy” in celebration of Earth Day. With the help of parents and teachers, students scattered across the schoolyard to release thousands of ladybugs back into the environment on plants, flowers and trees. In the days leading up to Earth Day, students learned that ladybugs feed on insects that are harmful to gardens, trees and shrubs. Chesterbrook Academy teaches the importance of community and exploring nature at a young age.
