JGESA -> Terra Nova
Terra Nova
June 23, 2023
Revitalization
After 10 years as Jane Goodall Environmental Sciences Academy, we will soon become Terra Nova.
- Terra Nova means "new lands" and for the first time, the school will have its own property!
- The transition to Terra Nova better reflects
who we are as a learning community while still maintaining "Out of the Classroom, into the World.
The Owl
The owl is a strong raptor that is respected but not commonly seen. It is spoken about with a sense of awe.
- It continues the avian theme but is a bird that is more specific and symbolic of us.
- To go along with our new name, owls are also associated with change and transformation.
Our colors
- Green is also associated with new life and new lands.
- Blue connects us to water which has always
been important to the school.
- Orange is the color of fire and represents passion and creativity.
