From Deer Lakes High School
The Deer Lakes High School Life Skills students would like to start a school garden. The Deer Lakes School District is a rural district that relies primarily on grant funding for such programs. The Life Skills students volunteer once a month at the local community food bank. It is our intention to be able to donate fresh produce to this food bank. Our garden will also be used to enhance the curriculum of other classrooms in our district, such as hosting a pumpkin patch for the K-2 Life Skills classroom, and also giving students in the Family Consumer Science classrooms the opportunity to use the fresh produce for their lessons. Over the summer months, when school is not in session, students can earn community service hours for maintaining the classroom garden as well. |
