My Project

I enjoy teaching my gifted students. I love how they are intrigued about learning new things, especially when it comes to gardening. We are fortunate to have a school garden right outside our building where we can grow what we want. Students have a great time working in teams to make their own garden bed come alive. They are free to grow whatever they like and learn to share with one another when it is time to harvest. The items that I am requesting will help maintain our garden for the school year. We are in need of soil the most. Our hose and gloves have worn out so we are requesting new ones. The garden has overgrown from last year so rakes will also be needed.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
