Garfield Prep's 9th Annual Pre-Service Week

FRESHFARM FoodPrints integrates gardening, cooking, and nutrition education into the curriculum at partner schools in Washington, DC.  Our expert educators teach hands-on, standards-based lessons that get students excited about growing, preparing and enjoying fresh, local whole foods — and bring science, math and social studies to life — with the goal of improving health outcomes of children and families.  Garfield Teachers in PK3 - 5th grade will have the opportunity to meet our FoodPrints instructor and learn more about this year's scheduling requirements.  We are aiming to schedule 8 or 9 sessions for each classroom over the course of the school year. PK 3 and 4-year-old sessions can be 1 to 1.5 hours and K through 5th-grade sessions will be scheduled for 2 hours.  Garfield teachers should think of these sessions as in-school field trips.
