Seniors in Natural Resource Management worked with Ms. Demelo to change the sand in the filter of one of our tanks. The sand needs to be changed about once a year, especially with herbivorous turtles like the red-bellied cooter, as the greens in their tank creates waste. #BAPride #CultivatingExcellence #EnvironmentalScience #NaturalResourceManagement #Turtles
Our Veterinary Science and Laboratory Animal Technology students had a practical earlier this week! Every aspect of working in a vet clinic is important, so this practical was centered around scheduling appointments. #BAPride #CultivatingExcellence #SmallAnimal #VetScience

To prepare for the industry, Arboriculture students take weekly tree ID quizzes! By the end of senior year they will know 105 tree species in English and Latin. Our students learn to identify trees that they see outside in addition to tree samples inside. Our Arbor students take these quizzes year-round regardless of weather. When the trees are missing leaves in winter, students have to rise to the challenge using other characteristics to identify them. #BAPride #CultivatingExcellence #Arboriculture #Trees
Juniors in Agricultural Mechanics have been working to fix a Farmco feeder for our Animal Science Department. It would cost about $11,500 to buy a new feeder, but our Mechanics students have been able to fix this feeder for around $2,000! Currently, they are working on the sealing and painting process. While this is happening, some of our seniors have been working with Mr. Pion to restore a hay tedder. #BAPride #CultivatingExcellence #AgMech #Mechanics
Juniors and seniors in our Environmental Conservation Department heard our Vocational Coordinator Ms. Fullen talk about Co-Op opportunities. Co-Op is a great opportunity for our students to get real work experience in their area of interest! #BAPride #CultivatingExcellence #EnvironmentalConservation #Co-Op
Our students in Veterinary Science and Laboratory Animal Technology are continuing to work hard with weekly appointments in our vet clinic! Earlier this week our students got valuable experience with some dogs that came to us for exams. #BAPride #CultivatingExcellence #VetScience #SmallAnimals #Dogs
We would like to thank UMass Amherst and Stockbridge for hosting our Horticulture and Env Conservation students and staff.

🐄🌟 Bristol Aggie Wins Agri-Mark’s Top Quality Milk Award! 🌟 We are thrilled to announce that Bristol County Agricultural High School has been recognized with Agri-Mark’s Top Quality Milk Award! Our Campus farm has produced the highest quality milk in Region 2, which includes 25 farms across Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, and New Hampshire. This prestigious award was presented at the Agri-Mark Annual Regional Meeting, where we were honored with fellow dairy farmers from across New England. This achievement reflects the incredible dedication of our students, faculty, and farm staff. Over the past 2 year post our Campus building project, we have focused on advancing our practices through a seamless transition to a @DeLaval robotic milker, conducting a thorough review of herd nutrition, and implementing best-in-class herd management strategies. These efforts have not only enhanced milk quality but also provided our students with cutting-edge, hands-on agricultural experiences. 💡 About Agri-Mark Cooperative Agri-Mark is a leading dairy farmer cooperative that represents over 700 family farms across New England and New York. As one of the largest suppliers of farm-fresh milk in the region, Agri-Mark markets over 300 million gallons annually, producing beloved products like Cabot and McCadam cheeses, butter, yogurt, and more. Their commitment to quality and innovation mirrors our dedication to excellence at Bristol Aggie, making this award even more meaningful. Thank you to Agri-Mark and our faculty and staff involved for your support. Together, we continue to make strides in agricultural education and innovation! 🐄#BristolAggiePride #AgriMark #DairyExcellence #FutureFarmers

Happy Thanksgiving!
While many people will be busy preparing food for Thanksgiving, our Natural Resource Management students have been busy prepping food for the animals in our Confiscation Lab. The 31 animals currently housed in this lab were confiscated by environmental law enforcement officers. Some came from as far away as California. This work is part of a national liberation between AZA zoos and aquaria, the US Fish and Widllife Service, the Turtle Survival Alliance, and smaller institutions like Bristol Aggie. #BAPride #CultivatingExcellence #NaturalResourceManagement #Turtles #endangeredspecies #nature #wildlife @usfws @zoos_aquariums @turtlesurvival
