Fifth graders kept busy at Farm School

Fifth graders spent three days last week at Farm School, taking on the duties of a working farm for two nights and three days. They fed the animals, mucked out stalls, cooked meals, and assisted with gardening. They also had free time to roam the farm and relax with classmates. Fifth grade teachers Jess Kato and Maggie Scannell say that students come together as a class at Farm School and gain a new appreciation for their fellow students. The experience broadens their worldview, and class members often end up seeing each other in a new light.
