I hope everyone had a great week. Students have been hard at work and play. One source of excitement here is that it's Special Activities time! For the last 4 Fridays of the school year (excluding 5/26 for the half day), students will participate in enrichment activities like campfire cooking, embroidery, Spanish, and other topics.
I had the great pleasure of bringing our sixth grade class on a field trip to Fairmont Farm in East Montpelier on Wednesday. The trip was organized by 4H and the University of Vermont Extension. Students got to learn about the diverse careers available in agriculture. From scientists who study dung beetles to farm loan providers to cow feed producers, there are a wide array of ways to be involved in a field (pun intended!) so important to the economy of Vermont.
