Congratulations to our track athletes who qualified for the Spring 2025 Academic All State List!

Track and Field Athletes Academic All State List

Mrs. Haeberlin has been busy sharpening her skills—literally—by learning how to process hogs. 🐖 She attended the MVATA Summer Institute to learn how to process hogs in the classroom. The class was taught by Ms. Leykamp, who is an agriculture teacher at Montgomery County.

This hands-on training ensures students will get real-world experience in the classroom. Mrs. Haeberlin walked through the steps on how to process a hog, both with meat lab equipment and without. This included the break down of a carcass into primal and then retail cuts, making ground meat, sausage, and brats.

Learning never stops when you are preparing the next generation! Our teachers stay busy during the summer with unique learning opportunities like this and always preparing for the new school year!
