just saw a blurb on the news that caught my attention. A high school in Texas decided to stop its football program and made the field an organic garden. The kids get first hand knowledge on growing food, and class credits. All the food gets donated to local groups. I'm not intending to offend all the football fans out there but I think this is a great program!
! I think it's great to have programs like that. My high school sucked. They never taught how to balance a checkbook, grow things, or much else that is relevant to everyday life. In all fairness, I was probably looking for that non food stuff to really find out if there were any good programs in the school.....
