MHS Interior Design classes were visited by Tyler Brovelli and Danielle Mischke, Project Engineers for Findorff.
Students learned design, material selection, installation, and quality review.
A very exciting aspect was that they were able to tour the new spaces in the MHS building that are under construction! They saw where the Fabrication Lab, student cafe spaces will be, as well as several classroom areas and dance/exercise spaces as well. They also were able to hear about bumps in the road and how the team problem solves those as well.
We’re very excited to share that the National Federation of State High School Associations has selected Coach Alexa Richardson as the 2020-2021 Wisconsin Girls Cross Country Coach of the year!
