Our entire outdoor classroom project is the brain child of retired preschool teacher, Ellie Jinks. Her vision of this project continually inspires us. Please take the time to visit our About Us page to find out how her desire to create an outdoor space in which Alexander students can play and learn became the Alexander Outdoor Classroom.
In 2014 Mrs. Jinks was nominated as "LifeChanger of the Year", because of her work to establish this outdoor learning space for Alexander. The "LifeChanger" program is sponsored by National Life Group and annually recognizes outstanding educators who make a positive difference in the lives of students.
