My Project

Thank you for coming to our PreK, DonorsChoose page. We are lucky to have a courtyard and greenhouse connected right to our classroom!

We are looking for supplies to help grow a flower garden and have plants throughout the year in our greenhouse.

Our PreK has the potential to use our classrooms' facilities to make learning about nature and gardening a daily activity. Our PreK just needs supplies to help that get started. We would really like a flower garden to help us learn how things change and grow, as well as teaching how to care for a green space.

Thank you for anything you can give.
