My Project
I love how curious, creative, and eager to learn my students are. They come to school every day ready to explore and grow, not just academically but as kind and responsible citizens. A school garden will give them a hands-on way to connect with science, nature, and healthy living. They’ll learn to care for plants, work together as a team, and see the results of their hard work. Each resource (books, soil, seeds, tools, and compost bin) will help them turn learning into something real and lasting, inspiring pride and joy in their accomplishments.
Nearly all 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
