KING CITY R-I SCHOOL DISTRICT

District Championship Pep Assembly

Here's a sneak peak into ag class lately! Ag Science I students did a castration lab in their animal reproduction unit, and got an up close look at real reproductive organs. Shoutout to the Ag Construction class for making our newly designed "Castration Carl" models. These can be used to learn not only castration, but also ear tagging and how to administer injections! Ag Science II is in the midst of their soils unit. They learned about the soil horizons while making dirt in a cup for a treat!

Wildkat Football fans, if you are unable to attend tonight's game, KAAN Radio 95.5 will be broadcasting the game. There is no livestream this evening.
