The city of San Antonio, Parks and Recreation department took a significant initiative by funding a tree plantation at Spicewood Park Elementary, which has greatly benefited the school and its surrounding community. This project would not have been possible without the dedication and hard work of our Special Education Teacher, Mr. Marines, who worked in collaboration with Brian Everman, the Project Manager of Urban Forestry, to organize and guide the event.
With the support of the city of San Antonio, nearly $16,000 was allocated for this project, allowing for the purchase and planting of a variety of trees that will not only provide shade and aesthetic appeal but also contribute to the overall well-being of the school community by providing a healthier environment for students and staff.
We are also grateful for the unwavering support of our principal, Mrs. Velazquez, who encouraged and facilitated the tree plantation project at Spicewood Park Elementary. Her leadership and vision for a more environmentally friendly and sustainable school environment have been instrumental in making this initiative a reality.
The tree plantation at Spicewood Park Elementary serves as a shining example of what can be achieved through collaboration, dedication, and community support. Thanks to the city of San Antonio, Parks and Recreation, Brian Everman, Mr. Marines and Mrs. Velazquez, our school has been transformed into a more vibrant and eco-friendly space that will benefit generations to come. Let us continue to work together to nurture and protect our environment for the betterment of all.
