On May 7, Belmont High School had a picture-perfect moment with Miyawaki Forest Action Belmont and Biodiversity for a Livable Climate! Students and community members came together on the southwest quadrangle of BHS to create a live outline of what will soon be the footprint of Belmont’s very own “Miracle” Forest —a mini forest designed to thrive right on campus!
The future forest will:
Become an outdoor classroom for science, language, and visual arts
Teach students about biodiversity and natural ecosystems
Build stronger connections within Belmont schools and the wider community
Improve stormwater absorption on campus
Empower students to be environmental changemakers
This is just the beginning—stay tuned for the next steps as the forest takes root!
