Our Vet Science and Animal Science students have been putting in extra hours working on the heifer AI project and assisting with breeding this spring!
We greatly appreciate the students’ enthusiasm and dedication to this hands-on learning experience. Through the AI setup conducted by our Vet and Animal Science classes, students have gained valuable experience specializing in Genetics, Red Angus, and Red SimAngus cattle.
We are proud of the hard work and commitment these students continue to show both inside and outside the classroom! 🐄👏

Today was the last day of our youth basketball camp, and we had an absolute blast. Our 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders did a great job. It’s always a fun week, and this year was no different.
Big shoutout to our HS players who worked our camp. Would’ve been impossible without their energy and leadership.
