Dondero's Nature Playground
Work continues on the redesign of the school grounds as a nature playground, the first of its kind in the city of Portsmouth. We're reaching out to families, community members, and businesses to assist with fundraising, materials, construction, and more, in an effort to continue the work to bring more nature-based play to our kids.
