The 17-year-old actress met up with Ms. Rebekah Askeland‘s 5th grade class from Palos East Elementary School for Disney’s Friends For Change: Project Green. Together, they kicked off The Ocean Project and the Association of Zoos and Aquariums for “The Big Clean – H20 Style” a beach clean-up on Lake Michigan.
