About the Project

Our STAR Quality Garden is envisioned as a space where our students can take their learning from abstract to concrete by applying what they are learning in the classroom to creating a successful garden space where they will interact with nature. The project will be created from the ground up with construction, research, planning and implementation incorporating STEAM based learning. Collaborating with peers, parents, staff and community stakeholders will build a strong sense of community as they construct and maintain this space. As the project unfolds, our students can internalize our STAR qualities of safe, teamwork, accountable, and respectful and see how these social skills are used by the adults they collaborate with. Both staff and students will utilize this space to enhance their social-emotional well-being.
