US: High school celebrates new greenhouse with ribbon-cutting ceremony

Morrison High School teachers and staff members held a ribbon-cutting ceremony Thursday for the school's new greenhouse.

Principal David Mills said the greenhouse was built by volunteers and completely paid for through local donations and fundraising. The greenhouse will be used as a space for hands-on learning and student projects.

"Our FFA alumni did all the fundraising last year for this," Mills said. "This was kind of a dream of the FFA alumni, and it's taken a couple of years once we started to get going, but it was approved by the ROE [Regional Office of Education] last Monday.

Agricultural Sciences teacher Tonia Prombo said the school's greenhouse "is a long time coming," and hopes to see it expand in the future.
