In 2016, two community members secured the necessary materials to build 6 above ground garden beds at our school. These beds give students hands-on experiences when planting, maintaining, and harvesting plants. The shed will allow us to properly store the necessary tools we need to maintain our beds and keep the area around them safe for everyone. Students who are actively engaged in high quality, meaningful work will be more excited about attending school which has the potential to increase student attendance, lower behavioral referrals, and encourage more students to choose science based careers. By participating in the growing and caring for our gardens, students will also take responsibility for their environment and develop a strong sense of community. They will be caretakers of the gardens and our school property and can feel a sense of accomplishment when they are able to harvest and enjoy the variety of vegetables the garden produces.
