Latta FFA held Ag in the Classroom Day at the Ag Building. All Pre-K, K and TK classes attended. Their day on the farm started off by planting a tomato seed. They got to hear from Latta FFA Alumni, Tucker Abney, from Great Plains Kubota about tractors and their importance in agriculture. Next they learned about some important farm animals and their uses on the farm. Needless to say, the day was a success.

📣Latta Cheer drew names today from the Student Section winners. Sadie Bryant won a $200 gift card and CD Wallenberg won a surprise $100 gift card! Congratulations and thank you for showing up for the Latta Panthers and showing great school spirit! 🐾🖤💛
