The students are hard at work in the school garden, digging, planting, and discovering how food grows from the ground up.  This outdoor classroom helps students learn science, teamwork, responsibility, and healthy habits while connecting with nature.  If you are interested in helping our garden classroom grow, please reach out to the school directly.
