They had the unique opportunity to communicate directly with astronauts aboard the International Space Station, sparking interest in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM).
- Moon Tree: We are excited to announce the planting of a Moon Tree at our school. This tree, grown from seeds that traveled to the moon and back, symbolizes our commitment to exploration and discovery.
- Sprouts Hope Garden: With a grant from Sprouts, our Hope Garden continues flourishing, providing students with hands-on learning experiences in gardening, sustainability, and nutrition. This beautiful green space has become a hub for outdoor education and engagement.
- Green Our Planet Grant: Thanks to the Green Our Planet Grant, more than 19 classes have experienced the joy of growing plants hydroponically. This innovative approach to gardening has allowed students to explore the science behind plant growth and sustainability, enhancing their understanding of environmental stewardship.
