Earlier this week the Plant Science and Intro to Ag classes broke into groups and stepped into the 'teacher role' by visiting an elementary class to present a 30-minute lesson. The students really enjoyed this activity and learned a lot of valuable skills working as a team.


Yesterday, the elementary was able to have a movie afternoon as a reward for bringing in food for the PTO food drive. Thank you to everyone who donated and helped them collect 393 items for those in need!
