Agri-Science: Plants or Animals
The Agri-Science Pathway introduces students to global agricultural systems, foundational agribusiness concepts, and leadership development through FFA and Supervised Agricultural Experiences. Students dive into hands-on laboratory and field investigations across plant, soil, animal, and food sciences, exploring advanced topics such as biotechnology, genetics, comparative anatomy, and food microbiology. The pathway can culminate in an Agricultural Research Capstone where students utilize the scientific design process to solve complex industry issues and present an end-of-course research project.
