My Project

Belonging is essential, and our Title 1 elementary school has taken multiple steps this year to foster a culture of belonging! We would like to continue this! Our students who receive a moderate level of academic support would like your help with growing and maintaining our memory garden. The supplies requested in this project will give our students the opportunity to execute the skills needed in planning, planting, and maintaining a tranquil space in our schools memory garden (with real flowers)! I am requesting supplies to help make this dream a reality.

Students learn best through hands-on learning opportunities.

The supplies requested will help give our students the opportunity to build their skills in responsibility by learning to plant, grow, and maintain our flower garden. This project will help give our students hands-on learning opportunities to experience the dedication and hard work that goes into maintaining a growing garden.
