What better way to learn about #FarmToSchool than with a hands-on #StudentExperience between our high school and elementary school?

Last Tuesday was AG Day at MCES, where our FFA students taught the younger kids how agriculture and farming help us all survive.

Students learned about dairy cows, poultry, seeds, planting, carpentry, tractors, and safety. They even got to taste-test a variety of locally grown fruits and vegetables.

A big thank you to Mrs. Lynn Hawkins, Mr. Josh Jones, and all of our students for making today a success!
