Overview
St Ann Catholic School is committed to providing environmental education for students from pre-kindergarten to grade 8. Students are actively involved in planting a community garden with the produce used to help prepare healthy lunches. They have formed a Missouri Stream Team (#4470) to care for St. Ann Creek on the property and do regular water testing and community education with storm drain stenciling through Metropolitan Sewer District (MSD). Students are responsible for caring for the native Missouri shade garden as well as regular recycling and composting.
