Tarrytown School District Unveils Peabody Preserve Outdoor Classroom

TARRYTOWN, N.Y. The former home of a brick factory has morphed into an extension of the Tarrytown Union Free School District's campus with the official opening of the Peabody Preserve Outdoor Classroom, Wednesday, Oct. 22. Families, students, organizers and community and political leaders joined to cut the ribbon on the 40-acre learning center, which is along Route 9 opposite the Sleepy Hollow Cemetery. Schools Superintendent Chris Clouet was the masters of the ceremonies for the program that included remarks from PPOC's co-founders Tracy Brown, Katie Scully and Sonia Crowley, who were at the forefront of making the parcel of mostly unused land into a unique, living laboratory for students of the village.
