Science Garden
The Science Garden is funded entirely by the NES PTAC with the intent of providing students and staff both an outdoor classroom and the opportunity to participate in programs on topics relating to natural sciences, gardening and outdoor education. All maintenance and programming is done by volunteers. NO EXPERIENCE IS NEEDED TO VOLUNTEER.
We need one or more parent coordinators per classroom (K-5). These coordinators will schedule two 45 minute science programs per year for the students of their class (fall and spring). Also, MANY volunteers are needed throughout the year (including summer) to assist with garden maintenance projects such as planting, weeding, pruning, mulching, etc. 1-2 hours PER YEAR can make a dramatic difference.
