Our 7th grade Global Studies students had the incredible opportunity to hear from Eric Hanson of KCCI News about the amazing work happening through Meals for the Heartland!
Eric shared firsthand accounts of the real impact this program is making in our community—and seeing the passion in his eyes as he talked about it was contagious! 📦
Even better news: All 7th grade Global Studies students will be participating in the Meals for the Heartland meal packaging event next week—so they'll get to see the impact firsthand themselves!
Big thanks to Mr. Heithoff for bringing this meaningful experience into the classroom. Our students learned that one person CAN make a difference, and that service to others is what builds a stronger community.
Shoutout to all our students for asking such thoughtful questions and showing genuine interest in making the world a better place! 🙌

🚜 Student Spotlight: 7th Grade Career Exploration
Our Winterset Junior High 7th graders had a fantastic opportunity today to step outside the classroom and into the world of local industry! We spent the morning at Agrivision here in Winterset, gaining firsthand insight into the diverse career paths available right in our own backyard.
Through a series of immersive breakout sessions, our students explored the vital roles that keep the agricultural industry moving:
Sales & Parts: Understanding the logistics and relationship-building side of the business.
Service & Precision Ag: Seeing how high-tech diagnostic tools and data-driven technology are revolutionizing modern farming.
Field Support Team: Learning about the essential coordination required to keep operations running smoothly.
This visit is a core part of our commitment to authentic learning and our Profile of a Graduate work, helping students connect their current studies to future professional possibilities.
A Huge Shoutout to the entire Agrivision staff for their hospitality and for investing their time in the next generation of Winterset’s workforce. It was an invaluable experience for our students!
Check out our Authentic Learning Recap Video! We are so proud of all of the hard work our students put into their showcase!👏
