Benjamin Stoddert Elementary School

The grant will provide salary support for a school garden coordinator at Stoddert Elementary. This position is critical to ensure that the newly installed garden is meeting its potential as an educational tool for the students and as a valuable gateway for healthy food habits. The PTA is providing some funding for the position but we hope to provide further support with this grant. DC Greens is also requesting a "Special Projects" grant for District-wide professional development.
