Bright Key Heard

🌟Proud Coordinator Moment🌟

When the Farm to School Program was selected by Heard families and staff as one of the initial Bright Key programs to be put in place, the goal was to expose students to agriculture in order to promote and encourage agricultural awareness, responsibility, collaboration and a sense of ownership.

Today was one of those moments when the program goal was met and came full circle.💫

In January, the Heard Bright Key 4-H club members planted seed potatoes in grow bag planters. After a few months of adding a little soil and a lot of patience, our students were able to gather their harvest yesterday.

Today, thanks to our amazing lunchroom staff at Heard, the full circle moment came when the students enjoyed eating the potatoes they grew. 🫶🏽

It's National Public Schools Volunteer Week! We couldn't do this work without the hundreds of community volunteers that serve in Bright Key(R) programs in Dothan City Schools. THANK YOU!
