Franklin County Ag in the Classroom incubated chicks once again this year! Sesser, Christopher, Ziegler/Royalton and Thompsonville schools participated and hatched a total of 32 chicks! We would like to thank Dana Wylie with County Financial in Sesser for her sponsorship of this years classroom chick incubation. Her generous donation helps with the purchase of bedding materials, feed, and other necessities for the classroom incubation. Thanks Dana!

​Franklin County Ag in the Classroom was invited to participate in the Akin Grade School STEM night. At our booth students were able to learn about Soil and its many layers by making a Soil Cereal Stack. Students layered different kinds of cereals in a clear cup, each representing a different soil layer. After they finished and had learned about each Soil layer they were able to snack on their creation!
