Service Brings Burke's Girls Together Across Generations

On the last Saturday in April 2018, Burke's students, parents, and alumnae teamed up for a service project in the Presidio!

Ten Burke’s students, eight parents, and five alumnae came together for the Presidio Nature Challenge to document the biodiversity of the national park. Presidio Trust staff led our group to Crissy Field to curate and catalog digital photos of plants and wildlife using iNaturalist, a tool that promotes citizen science and environmental conservation. It was a fun and educational morning — and the first of what will hopefully become a tradition that brings different generations of Burke's girls together.
