Commitment to Community: Today's 8th and 3rd Grade Garden Project

We take community and collaboration seriously, and it turns out the Community Garden MPH put in this year, and managed by science teacher Pam Stewart, is really taking off this spring. I stumbled upon her 8's working with the 3's this morning - digging, planting, and exploring what it means to create something sustainable and worthwhile for the entire school. Gardens aren't just for looks - they help build critical skills within our capable young people. This morning was so organic (no pun intended), I just had to share.
