Two great classroom visits this week from Mr. Ray Pieniazek and Ms. McKenna Bush! Mr. Pieniazek is the Executive Director for the Agriculture Teachers Association of Texas. Ms. Bush is the Youth Outreach Coordinator at Texas Farm Bureau. Both shared great insight on how to be successful in teaching agricultural science. We thank each of them for their time at WT!
