Mr. Russell is a welding, ag/animal science teacher as well as the high school FFA advisor. Each of his classes do many different things. On A days, he has his animal and agriculture science classes. In these classes the students learn about the different functions of plants and animals. They do many different experiments as well. At the beginning of the year, his agricultural science classes did a soil experiment. The students were to collect a soil sample, and determine what type it was. They then had to write a soil report. It was a big project all together!

  Day after day our teachers get to lecture us, yell at us, give us homework, give us bad grades, and basically just torture the students, right?  Well it’s time for the girl’s soccer team to get a little revenge on the faculty.  On Monday, October 26 the faculty will play a game of soccer against the girls soccer team.  The game will be played down on the soccer field at 3:30 P.M. and this is DEFINITELY not a game you’ll wanna miss.
