Green Academy Trip to Whole Foods
Mr. Brooks' "What's on your plate?" class visited Whole Foods on November 2nd and 3rd to explore the store and learn more about the food choices they make. Students completed a scavenger hunt throughout the store that tested the limits of their food and nutrition knowledge. The parents, teachers, and students then settled down on the Whole Foods patio to enjoy lunch together.
Check out the slideshow below!

Mulch/Compost Pick-up Moved
Due to the rain on Friday, we have moved our mulch and compost sale to Wednesday November 4th. Come by before school (7-8 AM), after school (3:30-5:00 PM), or during the school day via appointment to pick up your orders. If you have not ordered yet, don't worry! Just swing by on November 4th and we will have some extra bags you can purchase on the spot.
Thank you for supporting Green Tech Academy!
