My Project

Our students thrive when learning outdoors—gardening, exploring nature, and engaging in hands-on science and STEM activities. However, we currently have nowhere secure to store our tools and supplies. A sturdy outdoor storage shed would allow us to keep everything safe, dry, and organized. Instead of wasting time searching for materials or replacing damaged ones, we’ll be able to jump right into meaningful learning. This shed will support lessons in science, physical education, and sustainability while teaching students responsibility and care for shared spaces. Your support will help transform our outdoor area into a well-equipped extension of our classroom.
