Mr. Gailey has been busy this summer continuing to make improvements on the school farm and conducting Supervised Agricultural Experience (SAE) visits with his students. To date almost 70% of our students are taking part in either Placement or Ownership SAE’s.

Mr. Gailey & his students have continued to make improvements to the pasture by applying multiple herbicide applications and planting cool and warm season grass. The pasture is beginning to take shape and will be ready for animals soon.

The next step is to establish the parking and driving area around the building. Gravel has been ordered and spreading should begin soon.
