Gault Elementary School, a NOAA Ocean Guardian School, is located on the coast of the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary in Santa Cruz, CA . From 2014-2019, Gault students participated in coastal restoration activities at their local state beaches. Partnering with Groundswell Coastal Ecology educators and volunteers, these young guardians of our ocean have helped to stabilize the coastal ecosystem by removing over 4,300 square meters of invasive ice plants and replacing them with nearly 12,000 native dune plants!
