My Project

Recently, we have created a school garden to help our students experience growing their own food.

Your donation will help us create an outdoor classroom centered around this school garden.

Students can plan, plant, transplant, and work in the garden from these tables, and use the tables for other lessons outside when the weather permits. These tables will be the beginning of an outdoor classroom that will be utilized by our entire school.

The tables will be placed near our school garden and a small natural wetland, so students can study the flora and fauna of the wetland.

Mr. Thompson will only receive his materials if this project is fully funded by February 25.
