Over Fall Break, we had four students compete in the Soil Science Contest for FFA and won third overall as a team. In this contest, they tested their knowledge by judging soil based on texture and color. They also looked at different horizons and calculated slope. One student also competed in the Tractor Driving Contest, where he placed 5th. Great job to Damein C, Maddie W, Rylee M, Haley D, and Jaeger M!
