Outdoor Learning Center (ELC)

To build on our commitment to STEM education, it is with great excitement that SBS proposes the development of

THE ENVIRONMENTAL LEARNING CENTER
AT ST. BENEDICT SCHOOL

The Environmental Learning Center (ELC) will include an outdoor education learning lab along with comprehensive lessons designed to support not only STEM, but all disciplines addressed in our PreK-8 curricula. To financially support the ELC, we will be applying for a grant from the OceanFirst Foundation. To meet the needs of this initiative, SBS is creating a committee of faculty, parents, and administrators to coordinate the planning, construction, and facilitation of the ELC.

Specifically, any individual with experience in landscape design, environmental stewardship, a passion for supporting our commitment, and/or links to community organizations or businesses which could enable this endeavor are invited to respond to Mrs. Guido at guido@stbenedictnj.org.
