Grounds Day Fall 2024

November 25, 2024

As part of our Allegiance to Nature at Greenspring Montessori School, our faculty and staff organized our annual Grounds Day event for our children and families.

Our Toddler, Children’s House, Elementary, and Adolescent classes took on various projects around our campus including cleaning, planting, and building a new compost collection bin, along with a special nature-based story walk.

Many families also worked to restore natural spaces on campus and make improvements to the outdoor environments. Thank you all for your dedication and support!
