Jonathan Burr Elementary School

One of the garden's main purposes is integrating gardening into the school's curriculum. The science teacher will use the hands-on experiential learning opportunities in her science class and the after-school gardening club for grades1-8. The primary grades will explore the garden and work it into their lessons through various subjects. For Burr's urban students we want our school's garden to deepen the student's connection with nature and inspire environmental stewardship.
