School Gardens at OSD

  • The impact of garden-based education is clear. Numerous studies have shown that children engaged in garden programs show improved health outcomes, perform better in school, enhance social and emotional capabilities, and more pro-environmental attitudes. In addition, garden-based experiences can extend curriculum from the classroom and help meet statewide learning goals. Our community has a rich tradition of environmental stewardship, which is evident in the many school gardens within our district. No matter our age, there is always something we can learn from a garden!
