Welcome to the team, Amran!
We’re so excited to announce the new Wildflower Site Teacher, Amran Hassan!
Amran attended Saint Cloud State University where she received her bachelor’s in Philosophy with a minor in Intercultural Communication. Amran is passionate about teaching, because she knows she’s helping students’ minds grow.

Introducing Summer AmeriCorps Members!
Back for the Summer!
Heart House is officially open for the summer! ☀️ Students had a great first week back and are excited to be at the Vickery Park Brach Library for the summer. This week, all students completed a library scavenger hunt to get familiar with the space and played many new games with their friends, site teachers, and AmeriCorps members. 📚😄
Fun at the Arboretum
On the first week of program, all four classes spent a day at the Dallas Arboretum, exploring the Children’s Garden and learning about plant parts, life cycles, and wetlands! 🌳 Students had so much fun playing in the maze and cooling off at the Exploration Center where they played tons of interactive games. Students will return to the Children’s Garden this Thursday to participate in new classes and learn more exciting things about the world around them. 🌿🌺
