Scoop! There it is! - Cedar Lane Early Childhood (New Castle)
No Mo Sno - Star Hill Elementary School (Kent)

"Following a storm like the one we recently experienced, our crews put in long hours under challenging conditions to ensure Delawareans can travel safely," said Secretary Shanté Hastings. "The 'Name That Plow' contest is a fun and engaging way to shine a spotlight on the hardworking men and women behind the wheel and the equipment they operate. It gives our students a chance to connect with the important work happening on our roadways."
"Our students were thrilled to see their idea come to life! Opportunities like this make learning fun and show them that their voices and creativity truly matter. This experience has been such an exciting way for our students to connect with the community. We are so proud to represent Phillis Wheatley Elementary School with 'Han Snowlo'!" said Savannah Spotz, 3rd grade teacher at Phillis Wheatley Elementary School.
