🐣🤝 COOP-LABORATION | Things got a little egg-citing this week when students from Seneca High School teamed up with guests from Highland Middle School for "The Chickening!"

Environmental Science and Animal/Plant Science pathway students took the lead, transforming the classroom and courtyard into a hands-on lab. From the science of tagging chicks to the art of acclimating new birds into a flock, students are gaining the real-world skills they need for the future of agriculture.

8th graders will be promoted, but their roots run deep at HMS. Last year they saved zinnia seeds and this spring, planted them again. By promotion day, those flowers will be in full bloom. That’s the magic of this program: the work doesn’t end when you leave. It grows. 🌱
