🌸 Floral Design Update! 🌸
Our Floral Design students have been learning about florist hard goods and getting hands-on experience with the tools used in the floral industry. Recently, they practiced designing bud vases, learned how to use floral tape by creating flower pens, and explored floral foam by learning how to properly soak and secure it with tape.
These activities help students build the foundational skills they will use in future floral arrangements while also sparking their creativity! 🌼✂️

🌱 Hands-On Learning in Horticulture! 🌱
After learning how to transplant plugs for our upcoming plant sale, horticulture students continued building their greenhouse production skills by exploring different growing containers and growing media.
Students investigated how various media affect water retention, drainage, and aeration, then used what they learned to create their own custom growing media mixes. Each mix was used to plant spinach seeds, allowing students to experiment and test which combination works best for plant growth.
We’re excited to see which mixes produce the best results! 🌿🪴
🌱 Plant Sale Countdown Begins! 🌱
Our Agribusiness and Ag Marketing students have been getting in on the horticulture action, too! One of the most important steps in running a successful business is knowing the product, and our students are learning that from the ground up. From transplanting and watering to monitoring plant growth, they’ve been assisting in the greenhouse to better understand the plants they will help promote and sell.
Here’s a sneak peek at some of the plants being grown for our upcoming Plant Sale at the TCHS Greenhouse! 🪴
📅 March 24 & March 26
⏳ The countdown to Plant Sale Day has officially started!
Stay tuned and watch for more information coming soon about available plants, prices, and sale details! 🌼🌿

The GA-051 JROTC Unit embarked on an exciting field trip to Moody Air Force Base for the “Saluting Our Aviation Roots” (SOAR) event!

🧪 Lab Spotlight: Abiotic Influences on Brine Shrimp 🦐
Students dove into the scientific method with a hands-on investigation exploring how abiotic factors impact living organisms! In this lab, students created environmental gradients to test how brine shrimp respond to changes in temperature, pH, and light.
Working in teams, they carefully set up controlled experimental conditions, ensuring one variable changed while others remained constant. After allowing the shrimp to move freely along the gradient, students collected and analyzed data to determine which environmental conditions the organisms preferred.
This lab challenged students to:
🔬 Design and conduct a controlled experiment
📊 Collect and interpret real data
🧠 Understand the importance of control groups
🌎 Explore how environmental factors influence survival
By the end, students gained a deeper understanding of how organisms respond to their environment—and how scientists use evidence to draw meaningful conclusions.
Great job applying critical thinking and teamwork in the lab! 👏
