Green Project Club
This unique after-school program is designed to educate and empower children about environmental conservation, climate change and literacy. Each week, students will engage with books about the environment and participate in interdisciplinary, hands-on activities that explore environmental topics.
Green Project Club is a dynamic initiative that empowers children to become environmental stewards while nurturing their love for learning. Our club, which takes place both fall and spring, is a way for us to continue our community and literacy outreach throughout the school year. Our goal is to educate young students about the environment around them and sharpen their literacy skills.
