Miller公司在旧金山联合学区的25所中小学设立了绿色校园。这些自然户外学习环境不仅改变了校园，也改变了学校社区。我们于2006年在谢尔曼小学开始了与SFUSD的工作。在这个网站的一个主要特点，我们使用塞拉花岗岩巨石建立一个沿岸地区与山坡瀑布，在旧金山校园唯一的同类。该项目还包括可食用和本地植物花园，授粉者栖息地，几个室外教室和通道网络。

在我们与SFUSD的持续合作中，每个绿色校园都是由学校的设置和资源以及学校社区的兴趣塑造的独特环境。这些项目加强了每所学校的教育设施，将儿童与户外连系起来，为创造性玩耍提供了新的机会。

在我们所有的SFUSD项目中，社区参与对扩大小预算和创造自豪感和管理意识至关重要。我们使用“提升”策略让社区成员参与种植和其他安装任务。我们一再看到我们的校园项目改造了学校社区，创造了持久的参与意识。

Miller Company has created green schoolyards at 25+ elementary and middle schools in the San Francisco Unified School District. These natural outdoor learning environments transform not only the school grounds but the school communities as well. We began our work with the SFUSD in 2006 at Sherman Elementary School. In a major feature at this site, we used Sierra granite boulders to create a riparian area with a hillside waterfall, the only one of its kind at a San Francisco schoolyard. The project also includes edible and native plant gardens, pollinator habitats, several outdoor classrooms, and a network of pathways.

In our continued work with the SFUSD, each green schoolyard is a unique environment shaped by the school’s setting and resources and the interests of the school community. These projects enhance each school’s educational facilities, connect children with the outdoors, and provide new chances for creative play.

At all our SFUSD projects, community involvement has been crucial in extending the small budgets and creating a sense of pride and stewardship. We use “barn-raising” strategies to involve community members in planting and other installation tasks. We have repeatedly seen our schoolyard projects transform school communities, creating a lasting sense of engagement.
