Bristol County Agricultural High School: Aggie Weekly- October 5th

Aggie Weekly

Good Afternoon Students, Parents, and Community Members:
This week our students had their last full week to prepare before fall show. Students are already working way past 2:30 in several departments in order to set the stage for this year’s Fall Show. Students and staff are working together to prepare student showcase presentations. Check out the schedule below. #FallShow2018

Congratulations to this Week’s High Five Club Winner, Nicole Simas

Fall Show Schedule 2018

Fall Show preparations are the busiest time of the year at Bristol Aggie. As soon as
we get back to school, our students and staff hit the ground running preparing for
another successful Fall Show event. This year, you will notice some minor additions
to Fall Show. We are highlighting student achievement through student presentations
at Fall Show. We wanted to highlight the depth of knowledge our students have in their
field to our local community, so we created a “Student Showcase”. We are excited to
hear about the student projects from the student lens. See full schedule below.

Similarly, the Side-Out Foundation helps people with breast cancer regain control of their lives”. This organization raises money to fund education, research, and treatment for those living with Stage IV breast cancer. The Side-Out Foundation also invests in the future of athletes by awarding college scholarships to Side-Out Ambassadors. #BAdigspink
