In this episode, we're heading to the Riverdale School District. The Riverdale School District is about 50 minutes north of Platteville. It encompasses several small towns, but most notably Blue River, Avoca, and Muscoda. The high school, where we're going today, is in Muscoda. The district itself is definitely rural with just over 700 students K12. You're joining me on this three-part tour with their agricultural education teacher, Kally Koch, to learn what their agricultural education department of one is doing and how the school district has supported her and her kids, and lastly how the community has historically wrapped around agricultural education. It's absolutely remarkable what they have for assets in the district. You're going to tour the following three places: 1.) the building at the high school, 2.) their school farm, And lastly, 3.) their brand new agricultural center, the Jack Meister Agricultural Center, is just 3 miles from the high school. This is definitely gonna be one of our longer episodes, so stick with me. Be sure to check out the show notes at proudruralteacherpodcast.com. I'll include a lot of photos to help match what Kally telling you and give you some inspiration. Stick with me. It's gonna be a good one. So, we're heading up to Muscoda, Wisconsin today to learn all about the agricultural education program and community support with the Riverdale School District.
