Brillion HS students and Mr. Schlender visited Westhaven to assist residents with making flower arrangements.  The fresh flowers were grown in the high school garden via a true partnership among teachers and classes.  The flowers were planted in raised beds last spring by the Horticulture class taught by Mrs. Eickert. The raised bed garden boxes were constructed by the tech. ed. department under the direction of Mr. Behnke.
