Goals

- To create an outdoor classroom for our children
- To help raise the $100,000 this project requires to complete
Overview
In 2010 the kindergarten program joined the school system. Our playground equipement is not suitable for the smaller, and sometimes, weaker, children who cannot reach the monkey bars, or safely use the current playground. We hope to build a wheelchair accessible playground that also considers the special needs of children who attend our school or may live in the surrounding areas.
We want to incorrporate a green space with shade, seating, and an outdoor classroom. This will inspire our children to spend time outdoors, and encourage the much needed exercise that is lacking.
We have been doing extensive research, fundraising, and working hard to bring this playground to reality. Our children deserve the right to play, learn, exercise, and be healthy in the environment where they spend most of their day...their school.
