This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
Gardens are invaluable educational resources that offer numerous benefits to students, including hands-on learning opportunities, improved nutrition, and a connection to nature. However, maintaining a school garden comes with its challenges, including weed management. In response to this challenge, we propose the implementation of a Robotic Solar Weed Eater and Seeds program in my school's garden. This innovative solution utilizes cutting-edge technology to autonomously manage weeds while promoting sustainability and educational opportunities for students. The robot shouldn't be stolen as our gardens are in a metal fenced area towards the middle of the school so everything should be safe.
I recommend proceeding with donating to this program to enhance the sustainability and productivity of our school garden while empowering students to become environmental leaders.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
