Mrs. Asher's Class Visit to Jolo Farms
Mrs. Asher, a classroom teacher at Wattles Park, has been creating enriching experiences for her students through in-school activities and field trips. Recently, she organized a visit to Jolo Farms, allowing her class to learn about community life and hands-on learning opportunities outside the classroom.
For many students, this was their first time experiencing a farm, and the trip was filled with excitement and discovery. The visit offered students a chance to bond and share in a unique group experience, strengthening their connection to one another and to their local community. Mrs. Asher’s dedication to providing these memorable learning moments makes a meaningful impact on her students’ education and social development.
