Earth Week 2025

Following a hands-on Earth Day that brought students of all ages outside—from tree planting and litter clean-ups to oyster reef ball construction—Upper Schoolers continued the celebration with a full week of activities focused on environmental action. Tuesday kicked off with a campus-wide scavenger hunt, encouraging students to get outdoors and discover hidden natural details with their classmates. On Wednesday and Thursday, students got to work building habitats for native wildlife, constructing wood duck boxes and bat boxes in specialized workshops. Meanwhile, horticulture students led a class in planting a pollinator garden at Roots Farm—laying the groundwork (literally) for a more biodiverse campus.

Earth Week wrapped up Friday with a community screening of David Attenborough: A Life On Our Planet, an emotional and visually stunning documentary that challenges viewers to consider humanity’s impact on the environment and imagine a more sustainable future. Throughout the week, students explored the many ways humans can live in harmony with nature—whether by building shelter for local species, planting with intention, or simply spending more time outside. The message was clear: protecting our planet starts with small, thoughtful actions, and Earth Week was full of them.
