Alachua Students Map Out a Sustainable, Eco-friendly Future for their School
From January 3rd to January 14th, 2022, students at the Bhaktivedanta Academy North America (BANA) in Alachua, FL participated in an interdisciplinary project based on building a sustainable school. The project was executed by the middle school and high school student cohorts and their teachers. BANA is currently undergoing an expansion, and the school’s leaders wanted to involve the students in shaping the new school in the most ecologically healthy way possible. The subjects the students studied over the two-week project included but were not limited to: science, language arts, indigenous cultures, communication design, cottage industries, and even Vastu – the traditional Indian science of architecture.
