Academic Adventure School forms partnership with new Arboretum Children’s Garden FacultyFocus
or the past year and a half, Lamplighter has been nurturing a relationship with the Dallas Arboretum. That’s one reason F the School has been fortunate enough to hold its last two “Back to School” picnics there. But there is much more underway. In addition to having access to the incredible botanic gardens, the Academic Adventure School is working with the new Arboretum Children’s Adventure Garden, collaborating on lesson plans, integrating curriculum, and of course, planning student field trips to benefit from the School forms partnership with new Arboretum Children’s Garden Garden’s focus on teaching life and earth sciences.
LAMPPOST 11 FacultyFocus In fact, the relationship Lamplighter has with the Arboretum’s new attraction goes deeper. A gift from Howard and Rory Meyers led to the naming of the Rory Meyers Children’s Garden and, in particular, the Meyers’ sons’ contribution to that gift. Craig and Kevin Meyers are graduates of Lamplighter, and their mother, Rory, was past president of the LPA.
On a toasty afternoon in late September, faculty visited the Children’s Garden for a tour and experienced the stunning grounds first hand. Tour guide Maria Conroy, the Arboretum’s Vice President of Education and Research, said that when the idea for the children’s garden came up almost 17 years ago, organizers wanted it to meet a need in the community by helping to boost science test scores. “What we did was look at what the big science concepts were for each age group in life and earth science.” For instance, to teach kids ages 5 to 7 how plants live and grow, designers created oversize plant replicas, including a 16-foot-tall one that uses lights to show how water moves from the roots up to the flower. To teach different flower parts, they created a puzzle with oversize parts forming a three-dimensional flower.
“The new Children’s Garden at the Arboretum showcases environmental science education for our youngest learners in a unique new way,” commented Lamplighter Head of School Joan Hill. FacultyFocus Forever Learners

FOREVER LEARNERS Why do some children succeed while others fail?
Join us January 27 for PAUL TOUGH AUTHOR OF “HOW CHILDREN SUCCEED”
The story we usually tell about childhood and success is the one about intelligence: success comes to those who score highest on tests, from preschool admissions to SATs. But in How Children Succeed, Tough argues that the qualities that matter most have more to do with character: skills like perseverance, curiosity, conscientiousness, optimism, and self-control.
