Stayed Tuned for the Next Steps

Thanks to all of you that came to the PTC meeting and shared your ideas and questions about a school garden at McKinley. We all agree that the best course of action is to start small, probably with raised beds somewhere on the grounds. We also discussed creating a Garden Committee that would move forward with any action from this point on. More info to come on that! 


Please pass the word to other parents that might not have been able to come to the meeting. The more voices that are included in this project, the better it will be! We want this to be a garden for our whole school community.

PTC Garden Meeting Reminder!

PTC Garden Meeting
November 17th 
6:30 pm
McKinley Media Center

childcare provided

School Garden table during conferences

There will be an informational table for the McKinley School Garden set up during conferences.  We will have information about what work has been done so far, and what future work there might be. If you haven't heard much about the garden, or aren't sure what exactly it is, come see some preliminary designs that have been created. There was a brainstorming session that parents, teachers and students attended in October. From that conversation, de Santis Landscaping created a conceptual design of what a school garden might look like at McKinley. 


Come and add your ideas and energy to the goal of cultivating curiosity at McKinley.

Get involved!!
