My Project

I am requesting items to enrich both the science curriculum and the Farm, Garden, and Craft Club. The garden cart, hoses, and reel will help the students move and care for the plants that we grow as part of accelerating learning engagement in science. Students get very excited to see plants that they have grown from seeds produce flowers, fruits, and vegetables that are seen as soon as reach the front of the school. We also beautify the outdoor spaces that can be seen from classrooms, the courtyard and the cafeteria.
