🌱✨ Our amazing 2nd-grade students at Brayton Elementary School rolled up their sleeves and got their hands dirty in the school garden recently! Led by the wonderful Jen Munoz, the kids planted, explored, and learned all about nature, teamwork, and where our food comes from. 🌼👩🌾
It was a day full of smiles, soil, and discovery — and we couldn’t be prouder of these little gardeners! 🌿💚
