Summary:
|
The Farm to School Advisory Committee met during the 2015-16 school year to explore ways to increase student access to healthy, locally grown foods, to develop stronger relationships with local business partners, to provide additional professional development for teachers on the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS), and to increase students access to NGSS utilizing outdoor education spaces, such as school gardens. Four schools (Bancroft Elementary, El Monte Elementary, Fair Oaks Elementary, and Sequoia Elementary) have been working together as school communities to create plans for an NGSS Outdoor Garden Education program where students will rotate receiving science education in their outdoor space. UC Davis will be assisting in the data collection and the evaluation of the program.
