Garden Kick Off!
Details: New Academy Charter School is partnering with Grow Pittsburgh and Big Green (formerly The Kitchen Community) to bring a Learning Garden to our school. The garden will be an ADA accessible outdoor classroom built to fit organically into any school dynamics. This two year partnership with Grow Pittsburgh's Garden Educator will support teachers’ use of the Learning Garden as a teaching tool, and to help us build the groundwork for a thriving garden in the years to come.
