Mrs. Tax

I am the Agricultural Sciences teacher. My husband and I live just outside of town.  I teach full-time at the high school and also advise the FFA program along with the Robotics program. If you need to contact me, the best time is 7 a.m.-8:11 a.m and again after school at 3:18 to 8 pm on my cell phone 320-224-5878. I teach all 7th graders Computer Literacy and 8th graders see me for Core Skills Mastery (CSM) which also includes Intro to Agriculture. I rotate my Ag class offerings to include Large Animal, Companion Animals, Horses and Pre-Vet, Natural Resources, Landscaping, both Fall and Spring Greenhouse Management, Ag Business, and Electrical Wiring w/Concrete Finishing and Plumbing. In addition, I have Ag Chemistry.
School Supplies Needed for ALL 9-12th Grade Classes-Composition Notebook for EACH class, so if you have two classes with me, bring 2 notebooks as these will be class specific.
