Third grade students at Odenton Elementary School celebrated Earth Day Friday, getting their hands dirty with projects ranging from laying mulch to learning about tadpoles.

About 65 students were outside at five stations as they helped clean the school gardens, upgraded flower beds and installed new plants. They also made wild bird feeders and learned about how animals can metamorphosize.

The Earth Day sessions were the latest in the school's efforts to obtain Green School certification.
