 The back courtyard is more important than one
might think at first glance. It is located in the back of the elementary
school. It is also the main entrance used by all of the elementary
school teachers and students. So, no matter how beautiful things
might be looking out front, this is what they see when entering and leaving
the building every day.
We
started gardening in this area in 2003. One of the classes that used
this area build a reading tunnel.
This area us used by the art teacher because of the sunflowers and it's
proximity to her classroom.
In 2005, Adam
Gordon, built a work table, benches and a trellis in this area for
his Eagle Scout project. This area is now the site for three 4th grade
class gardens and our new native plant gardens.
