The Campbell-Savona Board of Education recently spent a full day at the Jr./Sr. High School. During their visit, members toured classrooms, attended presentations by Alternative Education students and the Student Council, and gained a deeper understanding of how Panther Provisions and Rachel’s Closet support our community. We are fortunate to have a Board of Education that invests its time so passionately in the success of our students and the CS Panther spirit.

Mr. Heywood's 5th grade Science class has begun an exciting hands-on learning experience using a Tower Garden, which allows students to explore modern farming techniques in a meaningful and an engaging way. This week, students worked together to assemble the Tower Garden, and they absolutely loved the building process. As we constructed the system, we discussed different types of farming, including traditional soil-based agriculture, hydroponics (growing plants in nutrient-rich water), and aeroponics, which is the method used by the Tower Garden. Students learned that unlike traditional farming, this system does not use soil—instead, plant roots are suspended in air and are periodically misted with water and nutrients, allowing them to receive both hydration and oxygen efficiently.
Educationally, the Tower Garden provides a powerful way for students to connect science concepts to real-world applications. Students are learning how plants grow, what they need to survive, and how different environments impact plant health. The Tower Garden’s design also introduces ideas about sustainability and innovation, as it uses significantly less water and space than traditional farming while still producing healthy crops. This system continuously circulates nutrient-rich water from a reservoir through the tower, feeding plants while conserving resources and reducing waste. Through this process, students are developing skills in observation, problem-solving, and responsibility as they will help monitor plant growth and water quality over time.
As we continue this project, students will take ownership of maintaining the Tower Garden and tracking the progress of our plants from seed to harvest. This experience supports learning in science, technology, and environmental awareness while also encouraging teamwork and curiosity. The goal is not only to grow plants, but to help students understand where food comes from, how innovative farming methods can address global challenges, and how they can play a role in creating a more sustainable future.
