About the Project

Our Sustainable Home Garden will provide a living laboratory in which students will see and experience firsthand what they are learning. It will both promote and facilitate engaging STEM and STEAM learning experiences. Through these activities students will build important life-long social skills and teach responsibility, community, teamwork, ownership, and leadership. Through the process of building and maintenance, our garden will foster a sense of community amongst parents, teachers, students, and community members. Our vision includes lessons in the class that will lead to outdoor hands on learning. We will also use this space for students to take books out to read, do art, take pictures, and take a mindful minute to relax and reset.
