There's a Cool Geometric Structure on Campus

It's a Geodesic Dome Greenhouse!

The Greenhouse is an element of Denver Academy’s Learning Landscape Project, which aims to integrate the physical environment into everyday learning using the educational approach of STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics).

We're excited about the potential of the dome to become a rich experiential learning opportunity for our diverse learners, opening up the world of horticulture — the art, science, technology, and business of growing plants. 

The Benedict Foundation for Independent Schools provided a grant for this project, with additional funds coming from these Learning Landscape supporters: the Edward E. Ford Foundation, the Hewit Family Foundation, and the J.K. Mullen Foundation.
