Welcome to Curley Gardens!: We are a growing group of Curley teachers, parents, and staff who are interested in caring for our grounds and revitalizing our gardens, including the outdoor classroom and the many raised garden beds elsewhere on campus. Our goal is to identify best practices and help connect any and all in the community who would like to work toward enriching our outdoor environment.

So far, we have worked to:

  • Formalize teacher and parent engagement
  • Facilitate teachers’ access to garden beds
  • Spring clean the Outdoor Classroom
  • Inventory gardening supplies and needs
  • Engage BPS Facilities for support
  • Research external education/management services
  • Identify grant opportunities

For this season, April–November 2018, please contact Rebecca Cline at Rebecca@rebeccaclinemusic.com for more information about getting involved.
