Kilmer Center Learning Space

Dear Kilmer Center School Families,

 

We have a vision to create a vibrant outdoor learning space for all students to access at Kilmer Center School.  This learning space will be constructed directly beside our school building with a designated walkway directly leading to the learning space.  The learning space will be a large area consisting of beautiful pavers and brick.

A special element of this space is it will enable us to memorialize past students.  Families can have their child's name engraved on a commemorative brick, permanently displayed within the learning space. Additionally, we're incorporating a beautiful central grassy area perfect for planting seasonal flowers, fostering a connection with nature and beautifying the space. We have a vision to add seating options to provide a comfortable and peaceful place to embrace the tranquil setting.

This exciting project will benefit not only our students but also the entire Kilmer Center community. Your tax-deductible donation will play a crucial role in bringing this vision to life.

Thank you for your support in creating a lasting impact on our school and fostering a love for learning in our students! 

Sincerely,

Hoang H Nguyen
