The Gardyn system is not just a piece of equipment; it has instantly become the beating heart of our Biology and AP Environmental Science (APES) classrooms, transforming abstract textbook concepts into tangible, living lessons. Students are no longer passively reading about science—they are actively doing it. They are meticulously monitoring nutrient solutions, measuring growth rates, and troubleshooting their own experiments, giving them firsthand knowledge of vital processes like photosynthesis and cellular respiration that power life on Earth. Your support is directly cultivating critical thinking and empowering our students to become hands-on scientists.\r\n\r\nThe system's impact extends far beyond basic biological concepts, fostering a deep appreciation for sustainable solutions. For our APES students, the Gardyn unit serves as a powerful case study in modern agriculture, allowing them to compare its minimal water usage and land footprint with traditional farming. This practical experience is essential for understanding global challenges like food security and climate resilience. Furthermore, the system has become the dedicated project of our Environmental Club. These students are growing a variety of edible plants and have taken ownership of its maintenance, becoming stewards of a sustainable food source and demonstrating the real-world application of their learning to the broader school community.\r\n\r\nIn short, the Gardyn system has done exactly what we hoped: it has provided our students with a truly future-focused education. Thank you again for investing in this innovative tool and for helping us grow not just plants, but a generation of environmentally conscious and scientifically literate thinkers. We are excited to continue sharing updates on their harvests and discoveries throughout the year.\r\n\r\nSincerely,","fullyFundedDate":1757540714609,"projectUrl":"project/grow-our-future-hydroponics-for-apes-/9377703/","projectTitle":"Grow Our Future: Hydroponics for APES & Biology Sustainable Solutions","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Bruno","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9283328_orig.jpg?crop=869,869,x332,y236&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1748095148100","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/bruno4science"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_46757","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":2596,"numTeachers":121,"percentFrplEligible":55,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":5,"percentWhite":32,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":56,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"21.5:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":70.4,"schoolId":46757,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about St Cloud High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"St Cloud High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/florida/the-school-district-of-osceola-county/st-cloud-high-school/46757"}
