Eighth graders in intro to agriculture recently learned about horticulture, including the various flower components and potential career paths in the field. As part of the lesson, they had the chance to create bouquets with fresh flowers. They were then tasked with delivering the bouquets to a teacher who has had an influence on their lives.
Thank you to Netty’s Flowers in Walton for donating the flowers for the class to use!

Seventh graders have been growing lettuce in Walton CSD’s new hydroponics system. Recently, Josh Clifford harvested some of the lettuce and took it to the cafeteria for everyone to enjoy.
Students have been checking the pH of the water, adding nutrients to the tank, and refilling as necessary.
Great job and keep it up!

Thank you bus drivers!
As part of bus safety week, the Walton Central School District recognized its drivers for Bus Driver Appreciation Day on Wednesday.
