Anza Elementary
Our program is a culinary and garden program. Our population is a high immigrant poulation from the Middle East. Our school is 79% English Language Learners. Anza Elementary has 100% free breakfast and lunch for students. We are a Title one school in a high poverty community. Our program is Farm to Table. The students plant and take care of the gardens, harvest the garden and prepare food in the kitchen to eat. The emphasis in the kitchen is healthy eating. The kitchen scraps are then taken to the composting bins and eventually the compost will be used in the gartdens.
Math and science are incorporated into every lesson as well as writing. Children learn to work together as a team and are required to use proper manners. They set up and clean up after themselves.
