Living Classroom partners with schools to expose students from TK - 8th grade to environmental literacy through hands-on garden based lessons in edible and native gardens cultivated at their school. Living Classroom is a full service program, we create and maintain the gardens, provide the curriculum, instruction, and materials to the classroom, and coordinate with teachers and administrators. All lessons are aligned with California Common Core Standards.

Teacher Testimonial to the School Board

The letter below was written to a school board in a large local school district to advocate for Living Classroom. While we have removed the district's name, Peggy's comments remain a passionate testimonial from a teacher's perspective - of the benefits of Living Classroom for elementary school students. Her comments are authentic and unsolicited - and very much appreciated.
