🌽 The Harvest of the Month: Sweet Corn! Because many regions in our state have a growing season of fewer than 100 days, our farmers rely on quick-maturing sweet corn varieties like Early Sunglow or Sugar Buns. These fast-growing favorites thrive in WY soil, providing sweet, nutritious energy for our students as the autumn air turns crisp. Farm to School connects students to healthy, local food: https://edu.wyoming.gov/parents/nutrition/wyoming-farm-to-school/

The Shooting Star for October is Jessica Hooper, a Virtual Education Program Consultant. She has been scheduling one-on-one time with program coordinators to help them navigate programming and provide support for different problems they face, which is exactly the type of relationship-building that really exemplifies our core values as a department and creates better working relationships with districts. This work coincides with the thousands of virtual courses she approves this time of year.

Jessica shows dedication to students and districts through her work and directly impacts the opportunities students in the state receive.
