About the Program: 

The Maple Glen garden provides real-world health and science application for the students at our elementary. Through tending to the outdoor garden, they are practicing first-hand our "guiding principals" of hard work, honesty, respect, responsibilty, and compassion which are our core values. The ultimate goal of this project is that students will transfer their learning into establishing healthy eating habits and be empowered to teach others to do the same. Aquiring sustainable living from the roots up is what we are striving for.
