Green Scene Features Taylor’s Outdoor Classroom

In this week’s episode, Green Scene talks with students and staff about Taylor Elementary School’s Outdoor Classroom which was recently built with the help of Dominion Virginia Power.

On Oct. 6, about 20 volunteers from Dominion arrived at Taylor ready to build an outdoor classroom. The cost of materials was covered by Dominion, as part of their “Energizing our Communities” initiative to further STEAM learning opportunities through the use of an outdoor classroom. Taylor was selected for one of the two local outdoor classroom projects this year because of its focus on STEAM learning and participation in Project Plant It!, an environmental education program.
