The Wildwood Park Project

 

--------------------------------------

 

John Wayland Elementary School's theme for 1998-2000 school years was

"Growing Together". One way the children grow together with the community is

through the Wildwood Park project. Wildwood Park on the North River in

Bridgewater, VA was devestated by floods caused by hurricanes in September

of 1996 and January of 1997. John Wayland students took a

special interest in helping to repair the damage while learning more about

the park's ecology. Work days were spent at the park planting native plants and trees.
