     The garden is a great place to learn about the cycle of life. Freedom School has a terrific garden where students perform experiments, plant and tend crops and flowers, and gain a broader understanding of the connections that link all living things.  Click this link to the Life Lab Science Program page.

      “The Life Lab has added so much to our program. It’s a hands-on total involvement from the compost under their feet to the dirt under their nails, an experiential kind of program. Children learn best from direct participation in the learning experience and Life Lab totally fulfills this goal. ” -Bill Staver (Teacher)
