       We are VERY excited to share that we are officially "Farmer's Thank America's Teachers" $2,500 grant winners!! We want you to know how thankful we are for all of your support - your daily votes and how you spread the word to your families and friends.
       We are planning to use the funds towards the installation of our 10 raised beds that will be in the current parking spaces in front of our building. 
        We are also excited to share that the School District has completed the installation of the raised beds that are within the walking path, connecting the two patios. The brickwork is stunning and looks beautiful as you can see in the pictures above! The space allows for young adults, who use wheelchairs, to garden and for peers to sit alongside each other as they tend the beds. We are thrilled with progress so far and will continue to keep you updated!
