The WHS Floral Design class is in its sixth year of providing students additional design experience while providing community members a good product at a great price. This program is known as the "Floral Arrangement of the Month Club." Each month an appropriately themed arrangement will be designed and arranged by members of theWeatherford High School Floriculture class. This program is designed to give students extra experience beyond the financial limits of the class. The arrangements will be made and sold at approximate cost to you as the consumer. This will allow you to purchase a $25-$40 retailarrangement for a $15.00 wholesale cost. It should be clarified that this is not a fundraiser, but rather a career related student experience with materials being provided by an outside source.
Arrangements will be delivered within the Weatherford City Limits. There will be a $2.00 monthly charge for this service. This can include residential or places of employment. You may also choose to pick up at the WHS Ag Building the day the arrangement is completed. Arrangements will be delivered to any WISD campus free of charge.
To participate in the "Floral Arrangement of the Month Club" or to order any of our other special products please fill out and return the attached ordering sheet to Mrs. Amber Jennings at WHS. Orders will not be processed until payment is made. Orders may be limited to a first come first serve basis.
We appreciate your support of Weatherford High School Floriculture class. We look forward to a great year ahead. I invite you to contact me with any questions you may have by emailing me at ajennings2@weatherfordisd.com
