Meet the Sheep at Perkerson Elementary

Students at Perkerson Elementary School recently got an up close and personal look at sheep and goats in their own backyard!

Perkerson’s Partner In Education, Trees Atlanta, provided more than 100 sheep and goats to eat the invasive plant growth at the school’s urban forest.

The removal of the unwanted plants will allow the school to develop hiking trails. In collaboration with Lauren Sandoval of Trees Atlanta, Perkerson students will assist with designing functional uses for the hiking trails for the school and community to enjoy.
