Transplant day in the lettuce greenhouse. These students are moving seedlings from the trays into the grow beds, and every one of those plants was seeded two to three weeks ago. Four weeks from now it's ready to harvest, and by then the next round will already be started. It's a steady cycle, and it only works because somebody plans it out ahead of time.

Learning to do. This is what that looks like.

Months of planning went into the new midfield logo at Holston, and this week our Turfgrass Management students went out and built it. A 51 foot logo with a 28 foot H, laid out with field coordinates and a tape measure. No stencils for the logo.

They measured, re-measured, painted, and fixed what needed fixing. Real problems, real skills, and a result the whole community gets to sit in front of tonight.

Holston FFA is proud of this group. Go Cavaliers!

Homecoming week starts with math, not paint.

Before any stencil (because we don't use one) students are out here measuring string lines, squaring corners, and plotting coordinates by hand to lay out the giant lettering and logos you'll see on the field next Friday night. Every curve and letter gets built off a grid, measured point by point, using nothing but tape measures, string, and geometry we teach right here in the ag program.

It takes a full crew to pull this off. Somebody's holding the tape, somebody's running the line, somebody's checking the angle, and somebody's double checking the math before a single drop of paint hits the grass. One measurement off and the whole letter shifts.

This is the part nobody sees on gameday. Hours of setup, teamwork, and problem solving so the field looks right when the lights come on. Proud of this crew for putting in the work.

We've been working on something for the field this week. Not showing it here, you'll need to be in the stands Friday night.

Big harvest day for Holston FFA. Students pulled over 600 heads of Romaine lettuce from the greenhouse this morning, the payoff of six weeks of daily work. Sowing seed, scouting for insects, checking water quality, correcting nutrient issues, it never really stops. This lettuce gets delivered to every school in the county tomorrow and served to students on Friday. Proud of the ownership these kids take in growing a crop from start to finish

Straight lines, steady hands, and students who take pride in doing it right even when it's just practice. Our man Zachary S. hones his skills on the practice field today while Kainan F. and Brady B. give him some pointers.
