Students at Perry High School in the group, Students Against Destructive Decisions (SADD) installed the Good Decision Garden at the entrance of the school.
Before:
Students walk past the planting as they arrive and leave school each day, enjoying the flowering display all spring.
With donations from local nurseries,
the students installed materials last fall
with the goal of continuous color from March
through July,
under the guidance and direction of OSU Extension-Lake County. Students are excited to see what will bloom next.
