About the Program: 

Our goal is to develop a protected inner courtyard to enhance student learning across many diverse disciplines. Winding paths among wildflowers will invite reflection reading writing art and music. Raised beds will provide a space for hands-on learning connections with food and raise awareness of hunger locally and abroad. Sustainability practices will promote responsibility leadership and stewardship. Visits from other schools will plant seeds of change in surrounding communities.
