Garden Stations Coming Soon!

With the snow on the way the Garden Committee decided we needed a little green. In January, we will start growing stations in the halls with a variety of vegetables. Basil, lettuce, spinach, cucumbers, red peppers and jalapeno peppers will be in the first planting. Classes can take taste samples, take measurements, and learn to care for our winter plants.

We just finished our first week of The Hour of Code and next week will finish with the rest of the classes. We hereby challenge all Discovery parents to try an hour of code themselves. Let your child be the instructor and get a taste of what block coding is all about. https://code.org/learn. Let us know what you think or how you did.
