Sustainability at Hommocks: Tools and Professional Development

The purpose of this grant is to raise a generation of environmental stewards at our middle school. It funds curriculum consultants from the Center for Environmental Literacy (CELF) to develop strategic interdisciplinary curriculum aimed at teaching sustainability across Hommocks departments and programs. 25 select teachers and staff will work alongside CELF’s facilitators as they design programs that integrate sustainability into Hommocks’ existing curriculum. This grant also enhances current sustainability programming in Family and Consumer Science by providing storage enhancements to the Hommocks Garden. These enhancements will provide enough tools to engage all students as well as a new storage facility near the garden.
