Exciting hands-on learning opportunities await Pleasanton students with the addition of the vertical hydroponic garden.
According to Mrs. Lauren Edwards, FACS teacher at PHS, "The new vertical hydroponic garden will give Pleasanton Schools a fun and interactive way to provide cross-curricular opportunities throughout our CTE and science programs. It will also be a great tool for our elementary teachers to use to introduce our younger students to the world of plant science, agriculture, horticulture, culinary arts, and many more!"
Former PHS graduate Erin Bowley will have an article in this week's Linn County News sharing more about this exciting program for Pleasanton Schools.
