🐄✨ Learning About Dairy at Claxton Elementary! ✨🐄 Over the past five weeks, our students in Ms. Stuart’s agriculture class have been learning all about where dairy comes from.

Great job, Ms. Stuart, for organizing such a fun and educational event for our students! 🌟 #HandsOnLearning #DairyEducation #ClaxtonElementary #ReadySetGrow
