Did you know our Intermediate School District (ISD) provides services and support for Career & Technical Education (CTE), Special Education, and Early Childhood programs? This week, our CTE and Special Education departments teamed up to create a memorable day of learning and fun!
Students from Waldron Learning Center were hosted by our Education Professions and Agriculture, Food & Natural Resources programs for a special fall event. 🍂 Students enjoyed a hayride out to meet the animals raised by our Ag students, then came inside to experiment with toys created by Education Fundamentals students, paint pumpkins that were generously donated by Swift Pumpkin Patch, who is also a BACC alumnus, and enjoy a snack.
Even though the weather brought a little rain, the day was filled with sunshine, smiles, and laughter from everyone involved. ☀️🎃🐮
