SHELBY TOWNSHIP/STERLING HEIGHTS/UTICA — Utica Community Schools provided solar eclipse viewing glasses to all its students to view the total solar eclipse that recently took place. Beacon Tree Elementary School in Shelby Township has now started leading an effort to gather donated glasses to be used by underserved communities around the world for future solar eclipses, since the United States will not need the glasses until at least 2044. Beacon Tree is following the guidance of nonprofit organization “Astronomers Without Borders” in conducting the collection. Beacon Tree Elementary first grade teacher Amy Orlando started the recycling effort that has expanded to other schools within UCS. See GLASSES on page 18A
