At Murch, preparing our students to step up as global citizens starts on the ground – literally. Students, parents, and staff tend -- and study -- several special gardens including the Butterfly Garden on 36th Street, an herb container garden around the Peace Pole, and vegetable beds that are part of project GROW. We also collaborate with Casey Trees, which has resulted in the planting of more than 100 trees on the school grounds. What's more, we have several initiatives to promote sustainability, good health, and scientific understanding about environmental issues.
