Alanson Public Schools issued the following announcement on Mar 8.
Students from the Alanson Agriscience class had the opportunity to attend the Great Lakes Floral Event and Expo in Grand Rapids this past weekend (March 4th-6th). Six high school students participated in the high school student design contest, where they had to choose an inspirational quote and construct a floral frame suitable to display. Two design elements, clustering and layering, needed to be included in their design.
Aliza Guerrero placed 2nd with her design using a pussy willow frame with the Tree of Life made from wire attached to the frame. She used dried delphinium for clustering and used wire flowers that she made for her layering.
Also competing was our Agriscience Paraprofessional, Mya Weidenhamer, in the college division. Mya had to create a Zen inspired arrangement for the opening of a Spa. Mya placed 1st in this category with her design incorporating spa stones, candles, a wooden container and Zen inspired flowers.
We are so proud of every student who competed this year and special recognition to Aliza and Mya!
