Prairie View A&M Cooperative Extension Program - Cameron County

Newly established Barracuda Bloom 4-H Club from Breeden Elementary School in Brownsville, Tx was recognized by the school board last night for their 4-H accomplishments, including their competition at the Rio Grande Valley Livestock Show. 4-H youth showcased their plants in the Horticulture Contest. We are extremely proud of these students and adult leaders for their dedication to learning and growing! 🍀🪴

🎓 Today at the regular Brownsville ISD Board Meeting, the Board of Trustees and Superintendent Dr. Jesus H. Chavez proudly recognized students from Breeden Elementary who competed at the Rio Grande Valley Livestock Show in Mercedes, Texas, earning placements across multiple plant categories.

Participants included Diego Garza, Allison Torres, Sophia Salazar, Aaron Jimenez, and Felicity Hesterberg. These achievements reflect months of preparation through the Barracuda Bloom Garden and the Learn, Grow, Eat & Go! program, made possible by the dedication of sponsors, staff, and families. 🌱👏

Such great accomplishments from our local 4H clubs!
