Since we opened our doors almost twelve years ago, celebrating the natural environment -- and sustainability more broadly -- has always included not just global issues but also the issue of importance to our local community. This year, we have adjusted the timing of the celebrations. Rather than scheduling large celebrations after school, we are embedding activities such as making trash art and planting seeds within the instructional day. In this way students whose parents/caregivers may not be able to join us in the middle of the afternoon can fully participate. Preparing for Earth Day has also always been a time when parents/caregivers, students, and staff all work together collaboratively. To those busy parents and caregivers who have volunteered this year, our heartfelt thank you for all that you have done and are doing. The gift of time that you have given to the community is seen and deeply appreciated; and to all the staff who have devoted significant time to make Earth Day a month-long educational celebration at Mundo Verde, please know that you too are seen and appreciated.
Please consider supporting as a volunteer. To check the schedule for when each class is participating in the activities, please see the following links:
