THINKING IN SUNLIGHT: SUPPORT PGS STUDENT-PRESIDENT, HEATHER MORECOCK, AS SHE DREAMS IN GREEN
By late May or early June, Heather Morecock hopes to see her fellow students enjoying an outdoor classroom in a courtyard at Oliver Ames High School (Easton, MA). Morecock’s senior project, [in partnership with Project Green Schools and National Green Schools Society],Thinking in Sunlight, is to create a place for students to learn out in the fresh air or just spend time. With COVID, having an outdoor classroom space will be particularly helpful.
In order to raise funds for her project, Heather became an inaugural partner with Boon Supply Market. Boon Supply is a marketplace where you can find everyday essentials while also giving back to a great cause like Heather's. Their motto of “Good for You, Good for the Planet, and Good for the Community” shines through!

“The goal of this project is not only to provide students with a unique learning space, but to also teach students the importance of fostering a respectful relationship with nature,” Morecock said. “It is my hope that this classroom will enhance Easton's pursuit of sustainable development.” READ THE FULL ARTICLE: https://www.wickedlocal.com/story/journal-news-independent/2021/03/31/easton-outdoor-classroom-could-open-spring-oahs-your-help/4811727001/?fbclid=IwAR1IvX2JJJuOKqBEdaYQOLaEgr97OviMf0-u29UjE2QVGQGKfQ5256Gcrog
