Senior Patio gets much needed makeover.

With a generous donation of equipment and supplies from Lowe’s and the help of Duane Thompson and his staff, Terry Parker students are revamping the school’s senior courtyard.

According to teacher and beautification coordinator Dean Hanapel, the home improvement company donated in excess of $8,000 to the project.

"What started out as a dream has become a reality, to instill a sense of 'Pride in Parker' and take what we have, make it better and for the students to enjoy themselves in a positive learning environment."

In an effort to revitalize the campus, students are using donated supplies to paint, landscape and upgrade the outdoor grill and pond for the student body to utilize as a place to enjoy and relax. Also, the area will be utilized as an “outdoor classroom” for culinary operations classes and faculty functions throughout the year.

This couldn't have happened without the support of the community businesses that helped make this happen. Many thanks go out to those who helped out during the times it rained. Thanks to Lowe's,Jungle Growth, and the countless volunteers that made this happen. Go Braves!
