On Wednesday, Amanda McKinney led the Agriscience class through a Fetal Pig Dissection Lab, providing the class a hands-on opportunity to explore and learn about material taught in class!

The class learned a lot and learning from a professional like Amanda is one of the most educational ways to learn! Thank you Amanda for your time and sharing your knowledge with the Agriscience Class!
