History of the KES Greenhouse........

Established in 1999 by the PTO, the Greenhouse enriches KES student life at each grade level. Students explore the wonders of nature by cultivating the school gardens and planting seeds in the Greenhouse.



The PTO is very proud to afford KES students the experience and great reward of watching their plantings turn into beautiful foliage.
