On Friday, our fourth graders welcomed guest speakers from the Henry County Farm Bureau Young Leaders. Mrs. Spivey and Ms. Walker shared about their careers in agriculture and introduced students to a wide variety of jobs connected to the agricultural industry.
Students were amazed to learn that more than 22 million jobs are related to agriculture! Thank you to our guest speakers for taking the time to inspire and educate our students about the many opportunities in this important field.
