At Mattahunt Elementary School in Mattapan the America SCORES poet-athletes have been hard at work on their project 'How Our Community Grows'. The students are hoping to increase access to healthy foods for the Mattapan community and to link the elderly with area youth through gardening.
After making posters and inviting a guest speaker help them research gardening the team hopes to pick a site and get started with bulbs and seeds the week of May 6th.
Two students from Mattahunt, Messiah and Lunise, also auditioned for the National Poetry Slam and did an awesome job representing their school! Click on the video below to watch Messiah read his poem "I Want to be an Athlete".
