Both Ag Science classes took two exciting field trips during their block class to deepen their understanding of crop science relating to corn! Last week, students visited Evergreen FS, where they received a tour of their facilities that explored careers, equipment, seed, fertilizer, and more. This week, they toured the Graymont Co-op, experiencing a drive-through view of the grain elevator operations. They also learned about the feed mill, grain commodity, and how a cooperative functions.
A huge shoutout to Courtney and Matt for being amazing tour guides and sharing their time and expertise with us!
Intro to Ag classes have been diving into the dairy industry and everything in between! Over the past two weeks, they’ve taken two exciting field trips.
Last week, students visited Aldi and Walmart to explore different types of cheese, compare dairy and non-dairy products by examining ingredients, and analyze the different types of dairy products.
This week, they toured Zehrview Dairy Farm, hosted by Flanagan-Cornell High School and FFA Alum Rosalee Zehr. Students walked through the show barn, milk house, milking parlor, and different types of cattle lots. They learned about cow nutrition and saw the day-to-day operations of a dairy farm—ending with a visit to baby calves, who were just as excited to see them!
Even though it was a cold day, the students stuck it out and had a blast. A huge thank you to Zehrview Dairy Farm and Rosalee Zehr for an amazing and information filled tour!
Way to go, Riley!
The Giving Tree is all set up outside of the East Gym! Email Mrs. Chipman at jchipman@fc74.org with tags that you take off of the tree OR to get a tag(s) if you won't be coming to the school. We appreciate your help in ensuring all of our students have a happy holiday!
The Fourth Grade classes, with the help of Mrs. Chipman and her students, dug up their first pair of underwear that they buried together back in August as part of their "Soil Your Undies" experiment. Many organisms in the topsoil layer were busy over the past couple months! We have 2 more pairs to dig up before the end of the school year!

Wednesday 11/13 was National Kindness Day. Mrs. Estes and Mrs. Hernandez's class painted rocks and placed them outside around the school to share happiness with others. If you find a rock move it to a new location so others can share in the happiness.
The Grade School Instructional class earned a fun Friday today. The students learned how to make Pumpkin Pie in a bag and Stuffing. Also watched a classic Thanksgiving cartoon special.
