2018-2019 Garden, Greenhouse, and Aquaponics Lab Improvements
We are still in the developing stages and can use all hands on deck. These are the ways parents can help us to get to the thriving and beautiful garden, greenhouse, and aquaponics system we desire:
1. Join the Roots & Weeds Committee.
2. Come to workdays.
3. Volunteer during any free time you have, just check in with Alyssa DeRonne to see what needs to be done.
4. Run a Roots & Weeds club.
5. Teach a Roots & Weeds class.
Please contact Alyssa if you have the hands and heart to help our gardens grow!

We love you! 🤗 This message from our kindergarten teacher inspired a spontaneous tv hug from one of her students. We’re so glad her mom captured this moment to share. 🥰 We hope you can hug the ones you love - virtually or in quarantine together - and share the joy this weekend while staying home and staying healthy. ☀️ #stayhealthy #stayhome #virtualhug #virtuallearning #kindergarten #k12 #asheville #integraleducation #holisticeducation #emotionalliteracy #teachersofinstagram #remotelearning #remoteodyssey #onlineodyssey #odysseyspirit #happyfriday #lifeinthetimeofcorona
Today, high school math teacher @little.yost led us in our first remote meeting Best Practice presentation! We wrote mathy poetry and were reminded to celebrate how often we teach from a place of “best.” #strongertogether #bestpractices #teachersofinstagram #theloveliest #remotelearning #remotework #stayconnected #stayhome #inspire #collaborate #writepoetry #integraleducation #k12 #asheville #ashevillenc #onlineodyssey #holisticeducation #mathteacher #emotionalliteracy #lifeinthetimeofcorona
Today, our 7th grade language arts class hosted three real live “Atticus” lawyers who work or have worked in the criminal justice system around the country. We used Zoom to have a panel discussion about the discrimination present in today’s world, the glimmers of hope or “baby steps” (as Miss Maudie would say) of progress, and the ways culture, institutions, and individuals interact to create just or unjust outcomes. Big thanks to our panelists with big hearts 👩🏻💻👩🏼💻👨🏻💻(@alrollins000 / Dennis, @hillsmissme, Allison) for helping us better understand our world and our reading of #tokillamockingbird ❤️ #seventhgrade #languagearts #integraleducation #remotelearning #remoteodyssey #onlineodyssey #lawyersofinstagram #socialjustice while #socialdistancing

This remote hip hop dance lesson video intro from @therealaquaboogy is so sweet. We are loving all the ways our community is staying connected; the way our teachers are keeping students engaged, moving, and creative; the way parents are supporting their kids and cheering on our teachers; and all while we’re figuring out how to live in this new world order and breathe through the weight of change. 💃🏻 Don’t forget to dance. #dance #dancersofinstagram #hiphop #middleschool #k12 #remotelearning #himom #lifeinthetimeofcorona #integraleducation #creative #collaborative #learningcommunity #asheville #ashevillenc #remoteodyssey #onlineodyssey
