This is our team building year with a new Family Consumer Sciences teacher, an FFA chapter that is organizing, and a very “gung-ho” Science teacher. We have many plans for the future of farm to school in Overton. Our plans include starting a school garden and a greenhouse this year. Our Food Service Director is also taking advantage of some opportunities such as Produce University and Team Nutrition, which will bring additional knowledge to our staff.
