Prodigy Leadersip Academy

The five primary goals for our garden project are:

1. To teach essential life skills and support academic learning through the planning, planting, harvesting, preparation and cooking of the fruits and vegetables from our garden plot. We know that children learn more through active involvement in the learning process.

2. Create a school wide project that involves children ages kindergarten through 12th grade, teachers, parents, and community volunteers.

3. To share the fruits of our garden by cooking and eating freshly prepared meals together and sharing them at school and community wide events.

4. To teach students how our choices about food affect our health, environment and communities.

5. To set an example and inspire other schools to create gardens by hosting open houses and educational events for families, community members and other educators to come and learn abut the garden from the children, teachers, and our master gardener.
