Why be an advocate for our Lee gardens?

By supporting and utilizing our gardens, students at Lee Elementary School obtain an appreciation for food origins, nutrition, and cultivation. They also receive knowledge of plant cycles and classification, and an understanding of ecosystems in real time. At the same time, they continue to build and expand important life skills in positive social and emotional learning, horticulture, sustainability, environmental knowledge and awareness, patience and responsibility, community, and human to earth connections.
