My Project
Students have been working on a vehetable garden for 2 years. We would like to increase success this year by making the space more comfortable to visit and increasing growing area. There are initial start up costs for a garden. But it's the maintenance that is getting rough year after year. Please contribute. The smiles on the faces of students who grow their own vegetables and are able to share with their families and the community is beyond words. Thank you for supporting our urban garden and giving students with special needs a unique experience.
More than 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
