Outdoor Learning Space
In 2013 we realized that the school had a nice underutilized outdoor south-facing space near the entrance of the school. Two learning communities, Dynamic Design and the Explorers, took on the task of seeking out grant funding to install an outdoor classroom in that space. Their research and hard work made it become a successful venue for learning and an attractive space for visitors to relax in. Weather tolerant benches and tables were built for Fall and Spring use.
Each year the farm-to-school coordinator and Explorers students plant the elevated garden beds with flowers and vegetables. Produce from these beds provide kids with wonderful food-related learning experiences in the Fall.
