Planting Seeds






The Washington Township Student Council planted native prairie seeds. The flowers we started are Black Eyed Susan, Blue False Indigo and Purple Coneflower.  We also planted Big Blue Stem and Little Blues Stem grasses.

The plants will be transplanted into the outdoor classroom when the weather gets warmer.

The Bench


Mr. Parrott volunteered to build a bench in memory of Voyce.  In the spring, the bench will be placed on the cement slab in the outdoor classroom.

What's next?????


The students and staff at Washington Township would like to thank the family of Voyce Oswald and the WT Parent Boosters for their financial support of the outdoor classroom project.  We would also like to thank TD Builders for doing such a great job on the construction.  But we aren't done!  We are planning to add tables, landscaping rock, plantings, stepping stones and many other things to the area. With the help of the WT Student Council,  the students raised over $2000 to continue the work on the outdoor classroom.  We have big plans for this spot but it will have to wait until spring. 

The finished product.....for now!

A roof is added to protect the new classroom area from the elements.

Mrs. Spenler adds an inscription to the slab for the bench.
