Alumni Spotlight: Holmes Earns Agriculture Award

Jacqueline (Hole) Holmes, Class of 1981, recently earned the Florida Agriculture in the Classroom's (FAITC) Excellence in Teaching about Agriculture Award for 2018.  

Holmes uses a school garden to teach her students science, reading, writing, math and engineering. Her students currently have eight tower gardens they use to grow produce for the salad bar in the cafeteria. Her school garden project was such a success last school year that Lake County Schools got a grant to start gardens at 30 other schools in the district.
