The first three weeks of school have been very busy for the Three Forks Agriculture Department!
They've jumped into wiring circuits in Agricultural Mechanics and learned the basics of parliamentary procedure in Principles of Agriculture. Those skills were then used in a series of mock meetings to get a lot of business accomplished, including making a trail mix.
Wildlife and Recreation has been spending a lot of time outside, taking the time to learn how to identify different range grasses and forbs, as well as exploring and analyzing animal habitat.
Animal Science has been learning about livestock judging and will be putting their skills to the test very soon!
