Sensory Week Recap! 💙
What an incredible Sensory Week experience! ✨ We had so much fun creating meaningful moments, exploring our senses, and celebrating creativity, connection, and inclusion together. 🫶
We’re so grateful for everyone who participated and helped make this week so special! 💫
Here are a few photos and videos from some of the amazing moments we shared. 📸🎥💙
Memories
Our hydroponics room is coming to life! 🌱💚
I need epsom salt but it’s was worth it! Trying to keep up!
I personally tutored this young man during COVID to get his diploma vis GED exam.…he is back to mentor local youth. Went to trade school and works full time.
It takes time to build a community of love. It takes trust, patience and consistency. And have no expectations. Love will do the rest. So proud that many of our Boxwood graduates (in video) are coming back to serve as what we call - service members. Paying it forward!
My philosophy stresses the importance of long-term programming…short term programming plants the seeds but long term builds character.
We need more spaces for kids to just learn, engage and have fun year round - Boxwood Learning Center!

Plants keep mysteriously disappearing... and then I catch my students secretly laughing while hiding them! 🌱🤣
It was all in good fun, and we had an amazing time making this video together. 😊
On another note, our Hydroponics Program has been a huge success! 🌿 We’re learning, growing, and enjoying every moment of this incredible journey. So proud of everything we’ve accomplished together! 💚
