Sabin PTA/SOLV Spruce-Up Day: August 23rd 9am-noon (& beyond) — Come help clean-up and freshen up Sabin School, inside and out. The Sabin PTA & SOLV team up to get the school grounds in tip-top shape in time for our returning students in September. E-mail the Sabin PTA at sabinpta@comcast.net for more details or to sign-up to pitch in. We are in need of volunteers with construction skills as we will be installing four new benches and two new garbage containers on the Spruce-Up Day.

On May 3, 2008 dozens of parents, teachers, staff and neighbors had a great time creating the Sabin Edible Garden in the North playground of the school yard. They laid the groundwork for what promises to be a valuable educational opportunity for students at Sabin, summer SUN School and ACCESS Academy. What started as a flat expanse of grass became by the end of the day a star-shaped array of raised planting beds and barrels. Fresh lettuce starts went in, as well as fruit trees and berry bushes.
