Hawk Victory Garden
Sonoran Heights Elementary School

​Grades 4 - 8 only


    The Nature Club has two purposes, to make a nature trail that educates students about the five C’s of Arizona and to plant milkweed that we will give away and enlighten students about the monarch butterfly.

        The nature trail was designed in the 2015-16 school year by sixth graders and will be constructed by the Nature Club/Hawk Victory Garden. We will make the Victory Garden together as a club. Along with the trail we will have a butterfly garden, one will grow milkweed to give away, the other will grow milkweed for the school’s own personal garden. The Victory Garden, trail and butterfly garden will be fun to establish and educational to maintain.


     Our mission as the Hawk Victory Garden is to educate, fascinate, and repopulate. The garden will educate students about Arizona as a whole and allure them when they realize how interesting and important Arizona really is for the world.  Additionally, we hope to design instruction for “Project Archaeology” on the topic of History and Archaeology in Arizona.

       The butterfly gardens will expose students to the fascinating world of  butterflies, build repopulation of the monarch population with milkweed, and fascinate students with the miracle called nature. This club will provide a fun and wholesome experience, for club members and for students alike.

       Our founders Sophia Sawyer and Dr.Yopp had a vision. That vision was to one day have a large population of monarchs and to have a larger population of educated people who understand their plight. Until that comes true we will work toward our goal that will ultimately make the world a better place. I hope that you will have fun with the Hawk Victory Garden.
 Meetings with be held every Wednesday morning from 7:30 to 8:00 in Dr. Yopp’s room.   Please fill out a google form to join.
