Help me give my students more tools to help with their school garden project.
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Wright's classroom raised $589
This project is fully funded
My Project
The project at our school aims to create an inclusive outdoor learning environment/school garden that will provide students with hands-on experience in different growing mediums, complemented by a compost/worm bin for fertilization. The installation of a weather station will enhance science lessons about weather and potentially benefit the broader community.
Additionally, a rock garden will promote social-emotional learning by spreading joy and inspiring kindness.
Students will be able to contribute throughout the year. Students will also learn while observing pollinators that visit a pollinator garden and bee hotel that will support biodiversity and environmental education at our elementary.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
