- LEAP Testing for Grades 3 -7: Monday, April 19 - Friday, May 4.
This is NOT a complete list of school events.
Did you know?
The 7th Grade TOC project is a bioclimatic green house.
Bioclimatic architecture consists of knowing how to make the most of the conditions of a site and its environment (climate geography and morphology).
The main objective of the bioclimatic greenhouse is to be able to plant and harvest earlier (you can save 1 or even 2 months) without using any external energy source. Pretty cool, right?
By using refillable water bottles, our staff and students have saved a total of
87,670
plastic bottles from the landfill.
