Donate and Dedicate Greenhouse to enhance M. Agnes Jones’ ES STEAM/STEM program.
The purpose of the project is to address a challenge faced by M. Agnes
Jones STEM/STEAM educators in their sustainable garden projects.
Educators find it challenging to properly incorporate the planting cycle
into a school cycle, where testing starts and school winds in prime
planting and growing seasons. A greenhouse would greatly alleviate this
challenge and make for a more meaningful educational experience for the
students. AWER worked with M. Agnes Jones educators to determine what
would work, then purchase the Greenhouse mostly with grant funds and
dedicated it at a special event at the school with District Governor
Andre Marria presenting. This project will benefit 500 educators and
students at M. Agnes Jones ES for years to come.
This project was made possible with a District 6900 Community Service Grant of $1750, and Club Contribution of $250
