Project Acorn: A Lower School and Middle School Collaboration Project

Inspired by an email from the Middle School inviting classes to support Project Acorn, kindergarten teacher, Gina Brown took her students to the Quad on a beautiful fall afternoon to collect acorns, but not before reading Chipmunk at Hollow Tree Lane to the class. Project Acorn is a Middle School Green Ambassador initiative designed to gift every graduating senior an oak seedling grown from a Quad acorn. The sentiment is that, even though they are going out into the world, their roots will always be at GA.  The  children proudly delivered some of the acorns to a Green Ambassador meeting and used the remaining acorns in a fall art project.
