Great news! Au Gres-Sims School District has officially achieved Michigan Green Schools status, "For Outstanding Performance and Lasting Contribution to Conservation and Preservation of the Environment". A few examples of these efforts are the Court St. Bioswale and campus rain garden, which capture and remove stormwater pollutants before draining into the Au Gres River, our greenhouse where we are currently growing nine species of native Michigan plants, and our solar panel array which provides renewable energy to power our school.
Congratulations AGS on achieving Michigan Green School status!
Check out these beautiful examples of Lanceleaf Coreopsis, also known as tickseed. Their seeds look exactly like ticks, but their flowers are beautiful and bright yellow like a daisy. This is one of nine different species of native Michigan plants that our environmental science class is growing in our school greenhouse. We will be selling our plants at the Au Gres Farm Market on June 3rd from 8am-1pm. Students will be there to answer all of your questions about the benefits of using native plants as landscaping, and how they can be used to manage stormwater runoff pollutants.
