🌿👩🏽‍🌾 The ESMS Ag students have been hard at work transplanting ferns, flowering plants, and vegetables—prepping for our Fall Plant Sale and filling the raised bed gardens with kale, collards, broccoli, cabbage, and mustards! Hands-on learning is helping our Blue Devils grow knowledge, responsibility, and plenty of fresh produce. 💙🌱#CTAE Delivers

🌸✨ Creativity is in full bloom at ESMS! Our middle school FFA members are learning the art of floral design, mastering color theory, arrangement techniques, and building confidence one bouquet at a time. We can’t wait to see their beautiful creations shine in this fall’s competitions! 💐💙 # CTAE Delivers
