Making the WGHS Gardens and Outdoor Learning Domains a reality will take more than just the imagination and effort of dedicated staff, students, and parents. We also know that a strong desire to constantly improve quality of life and an innovative spirit are part of the fabric of the community that surrounds our school.
We believe that the members of this community will proudly step up to support the creation of a resource that will help the future leaders of this very same community to develop ecological literacy and a profound appreciation for the natural systems that sustain all life.
