My Eagle Scout Leadership Project was the renovation/revitalization of our community’s middle school courtyard. I previously attended school there, and students were very rarely allowed inside the courtyard. The courtyard was not inviting and the land was not being used to its fullest potential. It was a poor use of space and was not stimulating to this educational environment. Land and space is so valuable and so limited – it was a shame to have it sit there unusable. The Cafeteria side of the courtyard had overgrown, mostly dead shrubs lining the full length windows.
