Grateful to The Oaklandside for highlighting the impact of our recent schoolyard builds. As Melrose Leadership Academy Principal Jonathan Mayer perfectly put it: "A new playground is life-changing. It transforms the school. When you make this a fun, vibrant place to be, conflicts go down because kids are just happier."

Highlights of the new Bridges Academy schoolyard: 🌈 Kid-designed play structure 🌱 Upgraded garden spaces 📚 Little Town Library 🏀 Multi-sport court ⚽️ New soccer goals 🎨 Colorful new murals Our Bridges Academy build follows the work that Trust for Public Land recently completed to provide additional green space at the school including 54 new trees, a shade structure, turf play area, and nature play area with outdoor classroom.

Did you know that adding shade structures and trees to playgrounds can reduce playspace temperatures by up to 30 degrees? That's why we are working with KABOOM! and Oakland Unified School District to ensure that shade-giving features are added to every schoolyard we build. #playspaceequity
