This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
The 600 students on my campus participate in a multi-cultural, dual-immersion learning environment. We are steadily creating a student run, self-sustaining garden space. We are creating a pollinator friendly habitat and take significant student input when deciding what to plant. Our garden education is cross-curricular, and many educators are involved.
After our first successful harvest, we are in our second planting and are looking to develop comfortable outdoor spaces for community circles, student performances, and outdoor education.
We are asking for supplies to help further our pollinator friendly habitat, expand our garden beds (to allow for more teachers to have classroom beds), and to meet the specific planting requests from students (hello, strawberries!).
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
