Help Out the JTSD Greenhouse Through Crowdrise

The 6th grade teachers and students have been hard at work in the JTSD Greenhouse! Our goal is to provide quality plants, flowers, and produce for the JTSD friends and families to purchase. But, we need your help! Please check out the CrowdRise fundraising opportunity. 

We hope to see you at the Cirque du Science Night May 7th for the opening of the JTSD Greenhouse and plant sale!
