Just wanted to pass on some great stuff going on with our 5th grade at Verner.  Mrs. Cosentino reached out to us to ask if she could borrow some Hummingbirds during PSSA’s and it has taken off!

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.
