Earth Day Celebrations at Greenspring

April 24, 2023

This month our community celebrated Earth Day with two special campus-wide events! First, we had a visit from Irvine Nature Center presenting Nature in the Classroom: All About Animals. We also hosted a special Grounds Day to spruce up our campus. Some of our big projects included the Lower Elementary Outdoor Environment move, Adolescent Rain Garden planting, invasive vine chopping, mulching, weeding, and so much more! Enjoy photos of our celebrations here.
