Thank you to all who have donated to the 16th Street Garden Entrance project. This lower school naturalist (pic attached) told me she hopes our new garden will become a migratory stopping point for Monarchs. On her behalf, THANK YOU!

Our “dream of green” is coming true at FSS thanks to families who have donated to our 16th Street Garden Entrance project through the FSS online auction. I’ve wanted this to happen for 3 years now. And you all are making it happen! On behalf of the children, thank you!
