We are truly thankful for our partnership with the Quad City Botanical Center! Over the past few weeks, their Plant Discovery Bus has been visiting our schools, giving our scholars a hands-on learning experience about plant parts, different types of soil, and the steps involved in planting.
Our scholars had an amazing time exploring, learning, and even planting their plants to take home!
