Children are taught from the youngest age that it is a privilege
to attend school in such a wonderful place. With that privilege
comes responsibility. Preschoolers plant daffodil bulbs while
middle schoolers help to maintain hiking trails. Students
are learning that environmental sustainability is not just a concept. Good
stewardship of our “home” is part of the school day.
Yea, I am one with all I see,
With wind and wave, with pine and palm;
Their very elements in me
Are fused to make me what I am.
Canadian poet Robert Service
It is not the mountains that we conquer,
but ourselves.
Sir
Edmund Hillary
