FernLeaf Yard Sale & Lemonade Stand
At FernLeaf, community is an important value we are intentional about cultivating. One of the ways we are doing that this spring is through FernLeaf Improvement Projects (FLIP) involving students across grade levels.
These projects will affect our school, scholars, and campus in a myriad of positive ways.
One FLIP focus is a Rain Garden — a garden designed to collect run-off from the parking lot from going into our watershed and specifically Cane Creek which runs through our campus.
This industrious group has planned a yard sale for March 30 to help raise the funds for their garden. They are accepting donations and you can plan to shop for some incredible bargains. Both options help their fundraising efforts.
Oh, and because shopping can make a person thirsty, they will also be running a Lemonade Stand.

The event is free and open to the public. Appropriate for parents of children ages 3-18, or professionals who work with them.
Koestner presents an engaging program on digital citizenship and social media best practices, including online privacy, free speech and the concept of a digital dossier, weaving important facts and research findings with personal anecdotes and real-life stories.
How tech savvy are you compared to your child? Can they out-app a phone before you’ve noticed the new privacy concerns with what they did?

Then come to this fun, engaging program, brimming with must-know info!
As the first victim of date rape to speak out nationally about her sexual assault at the age of 18, Koestner appeared on the cover of TIME Magazine and launched a new national discussion about rape and consent. Since then, she’s been an advocate and activist for student safety and sexual assault prevention. Her testimony on Capitol Hill was instrumental in the passage of federal student safety legislation, and she has assisted the U.S. Department of Education in developing and providing programs to women in high-risk communities.
