Big things are growing at Holston High School
Catch WCYB this evening at 5:00 p.m. for a special feature on Andrew Greer, Holston's incredible Greenhouse Manager, and his instructor Mr. Lawrence Cox, as they share more on the innovative aquaponics system.
From fish tanks to fresh produce, this project is a true lesson in sustainability, hard work and hands-on learning!
Students in Mrs. Christine Mitten's English classes and Mr. Carter Harlow's Art classes participated in The Butterfly Project, glazing ceramic butterflies in memory of the 1.5 million children killed during the Holocaust. Mrs. Mitten read the poem "The Butterfly" by Pavel Friedmann and discussed the symbolism of the butterfly--hope and resilience--as students painted. This was a wonderful collaborative activity to conclude National Poetry Month.
💡 Recognizing Innovation in Action
School Board members recognized Andrew Greer of Holston High School for his outstanding achievement in Workforce Readiness Innovation.
Andrew is leading the way when it comes to preparing for life beyond the classroom – demonstrating creativity, initiative, and real-world skills that set him apart.
