Agriculture Program In 2014-15, partners NC A&T University, the NC
Cooperative Extension, and SCS CTE Agriculture and Family & Consumer Science Programs participated in the Shitake Mushroom Project to help students cultivate STEM skills.
NC A&T has assisted the SCS Agriculture Program for
several years with the implementation of the Hydroponic system.
SCS was chosen as one of seven districts to host
a Food Corps of America Representative. Samantha Kappmeier will work with SCS and
communities to help connect kids with real food so that they can grow up healthy through nutrition education, growing and maintaining gardens, and cooking the food they grow.
Academic/CTE Integration Students apply math, science, and literacy skills
in both programs. Agriculture students measure and record the
pH levels daily from produce g rown through the hydroponic system. During the 2014-‐15 school year students raised chickens from hatchling to adulthood. The c hickens were p laced in t hree groups and
fed organic feed. Students weighed t he chickens everyday t o
measure growth rate and weight gain. Agriculture classes and science classes
collaborated on classroom lessons and instruction using the hydroponic system and greenhouse.
