The Problem

Westwood High School is situated in a highly urbanized area (North Austin, Texas) which will continue to encroach upon and consume the unique Texas Hill Country region which it rests on. There is significant habitat fragmentation in the area, even with the presence of small parks and greenbelts around the school.

Our Plan

Starting native plant gardens at school, which would provide some bridging space for wildlife, particularly pollinators.
