 Ag in the Classroom in 2025
AITC Friends,
Today finds many of you back at school for the first day after a much deserved break--and some of you are having a snow day! The calendar page turned to a new year just a few days ago, but some things remain constant. Wherever you find yourself, please know that Emily, Annie, and I are so appreciative of all you do with Ag in the Classroom, how you teach your students about agriculture, and how you continue to invest in students' lives year after year. Thank you.
The deadline to postmark your student contest entries is TODAY!! And, don't forget to finish your application for Teacher of the Year--We are so thankful there are so many wonderful teachers using the Ag in the Classroom Program across Oklahoma. Go to www.agclassroom.org/ok to find all the details!
Let us know how we can support you and your students during this new year.
