The Iowa-Grant FFA Chapter is attending the 92nd Wisconsin State FFA Convention in Madison where they are receiving two awards from the Wisconsin State FFA Association. Evie W. (2021-2022 Iowa-Grant FFA Chapter Sentinel) accepted the "10+ P.R.I.D.E. Award" on behalf of the Iowa-Grant FFA Chapter. This award is presented to any FFA chapter with a membership growth of at least 10 individuals. Bekka S. (2021-2022 Iowa-Grant FFA Chapter President) accepted the "Sectional Membership Increase Award" for the Iowa-Grant FFA Chapter. This award is given to the top FFA chapter in each Section for their membership growth. Iowa-Grant has had a membership increase of 29 members this past school year. Great work, I-G FFA!
Lara Hammerly, the agricultural educator at Iowa-Grant High School, has been honored with the Section 4 Teacher Turn the Key Award from the Wisconsin Association of Agricultural Educators (WAAE). Hammerly was presented this honor at the WAAE Professional Development Conference held in La Crosse, Wis. from June 27-30, 2021.
The Teacher Turn the Key Award is given to an agricultural educator in their first years of teaching. Its goal is to encourage early-career agricultural educators to become involved with their professional association on a national level. WAAE is the professional association for agricultural educators in Wisconsin. Members include 410 middle school, high school, technical college and university educators. The focus of the association is to provide professional development, legislative support and educational resources for teachers to enhance their local agriculture education programs.
Track and Field awards night was last night.
It turned out to be a success.
Congratulations Seniors
And
Nick C. and Hope C. for receiving Best Teammate Award.

This week Mrs. Hammerly visited the 2021-2022 Iowa-Grant FFA Chapter President, Bekka S., on her farm. Bekka lives on a 10 acre farm which is filled with mostly horses and cattle. She is very active on her family farm by helping with chores morning and night. Her family feeds and cares for 250 head of cattle during the fall, winter, and spring months. They also have horses that they use for rodeo along with puppies, goats, ponies, and donkeys.
Mrs. Hammerly got to meet Charles S. during his farm visit. Charles will be a Freshman in the Fall and is looking forward to Ag Classes and joining the Iowa-Grant FFA Chapter. The Straka Family Farm raises hens, meat chickens (summer only) and beef. They are licensed to sell their eggs and beef off the farm and their chickens on the farm. They process their own chickens each summer for their own needs and sell to selected buyers. Their laying hens are pasture raised, and the meat chickens are raised in open air. Their beef are born and raised on the farm without any use of hormone implants, antibiotics or medicated feed. They also have two large gardens for their fresh and preservation needs. They sell extra produce at the farmers market in Platteville!
Today Nick’s impressive Iowa-Grant career comes to an end.
Nick C. finished in 4th place, earning his spot on the podium today in the 3200m run at UW-LaCrosse. Nick finished with a time of 10:06.

Let's go camping and have s'more fun! This week during summer school we did just that. We pitched a tent (without the teachers help!), made smores, made a tent out of food, read camping stories, painted with mud, and went on a nature scavenger hunt. It was fun week!
Nick C. runs his final 3200m run today. He should be running around 2:00p.
Run for the ages! Go Nick!!

HAPPY WEDNESDAY PANTHER ARTISTS! In the final weeks of school, our Kindergarten thru 6th Grade panther artists created bookmarks to be sent to the Allen-Dietzman Public Library, the Montfort Public Library, and the Cobb Public Library. These bookmarks are to show our appreciation and gratitude to our communities that helped support us during this past school year, and even from the tail end of the one before! These bookmarks will be dropped off TWICE a month, on Wednesdays, so more artwork will appear as the summer goes on. Mrs. Carlson has also put her own bookmarks in - keep an eye out! Thank you for everything, Panther Nation, and read on!
