🌱 Digging into the wonders of soil!
Students in Ms. Brown’s agriculture classes got hands-on experience learning about the different layers of soil and the important roles microorganisms and earthworms play in providing plants with the nutrients they need to grow.
The best part? They got to enjoy a sweet, soil-inspired treat at the end! 🍫🪱
Learning is always sweeter when you can eat your creation!

A little cheesecake and a convenient way to take care of ourselves! 💙
Thank you to the Howard Center for Women’s Health for visiting Eighth Street Middle School and meeting with teachers during their planning periods to help schedule annual health screenings.
