Highlander Charter School will have a new garden for hands-on learning thanks to students of the school and volunteers from CVS Caremark and Kimberly-Clark.
Highlander Charter School is an urban charter school for grades K-8 located in the heart of Providence. It offers all the benefits of a private school—small classes, diverse populations, individual attention from teachers—in a public school setting.
Volunteering in the community
