Clintonville Farmers Market

It's good to be in a community

I had the distinct pleasure of teaching our Food is Elementary program at Clinton Elementary and Indianola Informal K-8 this school year. One of the amazing things about these two schools is that they are more than what they appear to be.

Both are amazing communities where people come together and share their lives, common experiences, struggles and the like. Parents are invested in and get involved with their childrens educations. There is strong parent support. After a year of being a "visiting" teacher I truly feel like an integral part of these schools and see first hand the important work they are doing in their students lives.
