The Ag Business class has been hard at work the last few weeks getting their records closed out for the year, developing budgets, filling out applications and working towards degrees! Mr. Rhonemus and Mr. White spent all day at Miami Valley evaluating books and scoring applications all day today. All of our students are heading to the next level of state evaluation and we hope they have continued success for approval! In the meantime, there is still hay to unload, animals that need fed, and equipment to tend to. Thank you to our school, administration, and school board for supporting us in these endeavors!

We continue to monitor our attendance rates. Please remember that students and staff should stay home for at least 24 hours after a fever stops. Hand washing, covering sneezes and coughs, etc. are also good practices to use when trying to avoid getting, and spreading the flu.

A big week in Ag Business class at the OVCTC! Students have been diligently working on record keeping and applying for awards. In the midst of record keeping, junior students took blood samples to test for pregnancy in our Boer does. Thank you Mr. Bryan Hazelbaker for being such a great resource for us and for taking time out of your day during your free time to assist us! Thank you to Hess Auction Co. for the opportunity to sell our planter so that we can upgrade our planting equipment. Seniors were introduced to taxes and Lyn Rhonemus from Newman CPA and H & R Block joined us for a session that covered the basics of farm taxes and student preparation for the real world in record keeping. Thank you to everyone who helps make our program successful! Maple syrup harvest is right around the corner next! Thanks to John Motts and Hunter Johnson for assisting with the planter on Saturday as well, they enjoyed a good meal afterwards once everything was finished!
