The Foods I students went to Greenville for a field trip recently. They toured Marcoot Jersey Creamery, which is located on a working dairy farm. There they learned about making cheese, and they tasted several different kinds. The highlight of the farm was getting to pet the calves. Then, the group enjoyed lunch at Joe's Pizza and Pasta. The last stop was The Milk House, where various flavors of homemade ice cream were served. Students were even able to see chocolate milk being bottled during their visit.

As a result, everyone in the high school has been relocated to the elementary school. If you feel that your child is unsafe, you may come by the middle school gym entrance and sign them out.
