The Heppner Elementary School (HES) Site Council and HES children felt that the crosswalk between the elemen tary and middle schools was unsafe, so they decided to do something about it. Upon the recommendation of the council, the HES sixth grade math class, under the direction of teacher Dave Gunderson, worked out a plan for a new crosswalk. ' I really didn't do that much,” said Gunderson, "I wanted them to use the skills they learned in school. Their job was basically to design a parallelogram that fit in the space. It was really their deal.” • Gunderson said that the 21 students in his math class us ed a lot of geometry and mea suring. Once they finished their measurements, they went back to their classroom and came up with the final project. After their final draft, the city of Heppner painted the cross walk for them, which is wider and has bolder lines than the previous crosswalk.
