Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

With this project we are looking to establish an educational greenhouse at your school. We understand the importance of providing students with hands-on learning experiences and fostering environmental awareness. This project will allow us to outline the steps to help start an educational greenhouse that engages students, promotes experiential learning, and enhances their understanding of biology, sustainability, and agriculture. By creating this project I can provide students with hands-on learning opportunities, promote sustainability, and cultivate valuable life skills. Please help my students to experience this exciting journey, their growth, development and the thriving fruits, vegetable and plants within our educational greenhouse
