🥕🥦 Big shoutout to our amazing Food Service team—they’ve been hard at work behind the scenes!
Thanks to funding from the USDA Equipment Grant, we were able to purchase a Robot Coupe (a powerful food processor) to help us prep our farm-fresh veggies faster and more efficiently! 🥗⚡
But that’s not all… we also received funding again for grades K–6 to participate in the Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program (FFVP)! 🍎🍇 Our students loved exploring a variety of fruits and veggies last year, and we’re excited to keep the healthy snacks rolling this year too!
Programs like these help our schools thrive, and we’re incredibly thankful to be awarded these grants. 💚 #FarmToSchool #HealthyHabits #FuelingYoungMinds #GrantsAtWork

🎉 Big congratulations to Cloey Fletcher, Logan Green, and Andiana Ziegler for earning 1st place at the state level in the American Spirit Competition and representing our school at the SkillsUSA National Leadership and Skills Conference in Atlanta, Georgia, this past June 23–27!✨
Their outstanding project showcased our chapter’s dedication to citizenship, community service, and patriotism. Mr. Johannes attended the event with the students and shared that this trip was full of exciting firsts:
✈️ Cloey flew on an airplane for the first time
🥢 Andiana used chopsticks for the first time
🌞 All three students experienced Atlanta’s heat and humidity—and quickly learned they’re not fans!
What an incredible journey and experience! We are so proud of these students for making it to the national stage and representing us so well. 👏👏👏
