Member highlight of the week: Senior, Levi Troudt!!
Levi Troudt is a senior in our Ag program and he has been in it since his freshman year. Currently he serves as our Chapter Treasurer. His SAE is working for Mertens Bros here in New Raymer. He also works on his family farm in Wiggins. He is actively involved in FFA, FBLA, Football, Basketball, Baseball, 4-H and the fire department.
Levi writes the following about his SAE, "My SAE is for my job at Mertens Bros. Inc. I work there full time in the summer and then only part time during school on the weekends. I am one three farm hands that are employed there. They are a farm and ranch operation, they farm corn, wheat, and millet. They also sell, clean, and treat seed wheat for planting. They sell corn finished fat cattle as well as grass/pasture finished. They have many acres of farmland as well as ranchland located around the New Raymer, Stoneham area. They even have some farm ground and ranch ground around Peetz, Colorado and also north of Peetz as well. When they offered me a chance to work for them I took it because I wanted to see how they ran their farm and what makes it successful and ideas that I could implement to my own family farm. The more I learned through my time working the more I wanted to stay and help as well as learn more in depth details about everything they did weather it was spraying or feeding cattle certain rations. My favorite thing I learned from them is this, "If you take care of the ground and the environment, it will take care of you and your crops". This was when my boss Jim and I were talking on our way to Peetz one day. This sealed the idea in my head that dryland no-till is healthy for land in many ways but like every farming technique there is flaws in it as well, like the development of gullies in the fields. Whenever I have the chance to ask a question about a technique I will because it may be in my life one day. "
These students completed the book challenge for first semester. The first and second graders read seven CCBA nominations or winners. Third though twelfth read four fiction CCBA nominations or winners.
Keep reading!

Today we are sharing about one of our freshman Wyatt Butler. We have included a few pictures about his SAE and what he does in his spare time that keeps him involved in Agriculture. Of all of the extra things Wyatt does, he decided to develop his lathe work into a small business. Wyatt is doing well turning on the Lathe. He makes pens, wine stoppers and Christmas ornaments. Here is a link to watch Wyatt in action: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1_F4pEPmxYvhAClKCdBPLZG8PL0r9lOXA?usp=sharing. Included is a picture of Wyatt‘s Mule deer buck, his antelope and pigs that were raised and butchered at home with his family. They also cite the bacon and hams. We butcher our animals to include the ones that we hunt by ourselves. Wyatt actually knows how to do it without any help. Lastly, Wyatt helped install a wood stove for the woodshop. Dad has him up on the roof installing the chimney. Great job Wyatt!!
One of our students participated in the NWSS catch-a-calf program and we are proud of her! There were 34 kids in the program and Zoey received 6th in Showmanship, 10th overall in the Recordbook contest, 6th overall in the live interview, 3rd overall in the production phase of my steer, and 2nd overall in sponsor relations! Way to go Zoey!!!
These 3rd graders never missed a week turning in completed homework for 2nd quarter. Great job! Avery also earned this but was absent for the picture.
Colorado Children's Book Award winners and nominees are the books students are reading for this year's book challenge. 1st and 2nd graders need to read seven picture books and do a worksheet for each book read. Their teachers have the worksheets. There is a list of books for them to select to read.
The 3rd-12th grades need to read four fiction (chapter) books in their reading level, take and pass an AR quiz and do one activity for each book.
More information is on the Prairie Library page on the website under the Menu tab.
The theme for library this year has been featuring children authors who have birthdays each month. Books are displayed for students to check out. The bulletin board theme for January is "Wrap Your Mittens Around an Author". Here are a few authors for this month: Tedd Arnold, Janet Stevens, Shannon Hale and Bill Peet. This month we also have winter related books in one display.
