👨‍🏫We would look to give a very special recognition to the teachers, students and parents who submitted entries in the Flower Show!

👏A big round of applause to the teachers who participated this year! We know how rigorous the curriculum is and we are so glad that you made the time to fit this project in! Getting the kids outside to play in the dirt is just as important as classwork!

👩‍🏫 Every year we are amazed by the hard work, and creativity of each and every student entry! The public delights in seeing these creations each year!

🌻The Riverside Community Flower Show and Garden Tours Association awards $100 grants to classrooms for participating in the Flower Show every year

🌷Teachers interested in applying for next year can easily do so on our website or reach out for more information!

🪴We can’t wait to see what the teachers and kids come up with next year!
