PTA Makes Cafeteria Quad Blossom!


Many thanks to the Emerson PTA for providing the funding for the renovation of the quad in between the cafeteria and the lunch court!


For the past few years, the areas surrounding the quad have received a few updates, but the quad never qualified to receive any updates itself. Grass wouldn't grow because the antiquated irrigation. The area was a dusty short cut from the lunch court to the next hallway. Drainage was poor and had recently flooded in the winter storms.


The PTA Board approved the expenditure of funds to update the area with both hardscaping (concrete) and landscaping.
The beautiful red flowering dicots are drought tolerant and will grow into a large flowering bed of foliage and flowers.
