Our Advanced Floral Design students took creativity to the next level by transforming leftover blooms into fun fashion pieces—designing full dress and tuxedo templates out of flowers!
Activities like this do more than spark imagination—they actually benefit the brain. Studies show that engaging in creative tasks activates the right hemisphere, which is linked to problem-solving, emotional expression, and original thinking. Even better, taking a break from the daily academic grind to create can reduce stress and improve overall focus when students return to their core subjects.
Great job, floral students—we’re proud of your creativity and hard work!

In case you didn’t know…. The ECHS Health Science Program provides students with clinical rotations at our local hospital and several other healthcare facilities in the area.
The ECHS program always enjoys hearing about and seeing the great things our students are accomplishing. Recently, Genesis was at Parsons Chiropractic Clinic, where she had a valuable learning experience. She learned how to apply KT tape and gained hands-on experience collecting patient histories.
