Photosynthesis in Action!

Help me give my students access to high quality materials for hydroponics class!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Swets's classroom raised $819

This project is fully funded

My Project

These plant racks with grow lights will give my students access to high-quality hydroponics materials. Currently, our class has one hydroponic system. By adding these plant racks to our classroom, we will be able to increase our students' exposure to hydroponics. Students will be able to grow more, allowing all scholars to get their hands on plants. Additionally, this will allow us to work towards our goal of increasing food production at McLain.

Learning about hydroponics is critical for students so that they can learn about sustainable agriculture in a growing world.

Thank you for supporting environmental/STEM education!
