Ninth and Tenth Grade Farm Practicum
by Stephen Sagarin, Faculty Chair - 27 Apr 2007
Ninth and Tenth Graders enjoyed a Farm Practicum at Hawthorne Valley Farm from Monday, April 9, through Thursday, April 12.
You should know that everyone who worked with our students was amazed by the quantity and quality of their work and by their uncomplaining, can-do attitude. Gary Ocean, who runs landscaping, said he'd hire any of our students for his summer crew. Seth Travins, "Sauerkraut Seth," said that no student group has ever packed as much sauerkraut as our group--121 cases in 3 sessions. And Stefan Schneider, when it was announced Thursday that this was our last day, said, "That's a shame." He also complimented the students' attention to detail in their work.
I thoroughly enjoyed working beside our students, too. Their good humor and hard work speak well to the work we are doing here in our high school, I believe.
