Landscape Design

Two years ago the Glenwood School started a landscape design club in hopes of redesigning the front of our school to make it more visually appealing. The design process started with the help of Claude McKenzie. He showed us how to use the computer to design our project. Pam Keithly was later brought in to help Claude and the club to choose which native plants to use. Once the design process was finished, our school started planning in the Spring of 2010. Darren Jones helped tear out the shrubs that had previously been in the planting beds and then replace the soil with nutrient rich top soil. Darren then planted several new trees in the fall. The leadership class helped out by weeding and preparing the space for planting in the spring. For the May Enrichment Day we started planting. We used a wide range of native plants and grasses including: dogwood (red and yellow twigs), burning bush, mock orange, kinnikinnick, black eyed susans and rosa rugosa. Now the plants are starting to really fill and we think the landscaping process has been a huge success. We are now looking for our next landscape project in front of the gym.

On Thursday September 16th, Sergeant Chris Dowlearn from the United States Air Force stationed in Vancouver, WA visited Glenwood School to present his experience about being in the Air Force. He explained the benefits of joining the Air Force. Sergeant Dowlearn explained the places that he has traveled from his small town in Texas background thanks to his 11 years in the Air Force. He was also able to share with us about the educational benefits of joining the Air Force as an enlisted person, such as earning a 2- year degree through the Air Force Community College. But, the Air Force also offers other schooling, so you can earn higher degrees if you pursued that path. He also talked about the Post - 9/11 G.I. Bill that helps pay for schooling once you have left the Air Force. Sergeant Dowlearn talked about the leadership and other life skills he has learned in the Air Force.
