great experience. As we are about to go off to college, this really displayed to us that we have voices to speak up about things we want to change in the community around us. To have this opportunity and be hands on with a problem and research our idea of a perfect solution, was pretty cool. At the beginning of this process, it was hard to find a problem that was both strong and I was passionate about. When Mrs. Moone suggested an outdoor classroom, it was a perfect solution, but was hard to find
