Gaylord High school BOtany Students
Not pictured Brady S. and Will P.
In fall 2026, the GHS Botany students began a meaningful project by adopting a bed in our Demonstration Gardens. Their commitment and enthusiasm brought new life and creativity to our outdoor learning space.
As you walk down the main entrance from the grass parking lot, you’ll notice their handiwork in the bed just past the tool shed on your right. This space is a testament to the students’ dedication, teamwork, and passion for the future. It serves as a living example of how young minds can make a lasting, positive impact on our community and environment.
