Exciting news!
Woodland high school students will be participating in a new Supervised Agriculture Experience (SAE) in the fall of 2021. Using products supplied by Nutri-Plot, students are planning to conduct a real life experiment aimed at determining the efficacy of the fertilizer/attractant using control and experimental food plots on the Woodland campus farm.
Take a look at the study’s abstract!
Abstract: A study will be conducted to determine whether the commercially available product Nutri-Plot has efficacy for increased production on food plots on the Woodland Farm. Two equal sized plots will be selected for sunlight, pH, and soil moisture consistency. Soil sampling will occur in equal lateral transects. The plots will be disked and tilled before equal food plots containing clover, turnips and mixed brassicas are planted on each. One plot (control) will receive no treatment. The second plot (experimental) will receive treatments of Nutri-Plot within the label recommendations. Plots will be monitored for food plot vigor. Vigor will be determined by color, robustness, number of plants per square foot and height. Wildlife attractiveness will be monitored by game cameras set at identical angles to each plot and frequency of fresh wildlife tracks/scat. Statistical analysis will be performed on each vigor and wildlife attractiveness parameter. All data will be presented at the FFA CDE competition in the spring of 2022.
Reminder!
HS Athletic Banquet will be held on May 11th at 6:00 pm in the High School Gym. There will be (4) tickets allowed per athlete and due to COVID issues unfortunately we will not be having a meal this year.

Congratulations to all of the participants in this semester’s Stock Market Game on another great year. Special congratulations to Austin Newell and Denyce Harper for placing top in the class and ranking 84 out of 2,228 teams!
Students taking Business Management and Business Communications participate in the Stock Market Game through the Sifma Foundation. Students are given a fictitious $100,000 and must create a diversified portfolio through mock investments. Students observe and make changes to their investments throughout the game and are able to watch how their investments perform in the real market.
From Mrs. Stegeman: Thank you to all participating students and to all that worked hard researching potential investments!
Mrs. Stegeman’s Business Communications class participated in the annual Investwrite essay during the fall semester. Students responded to the following prompt:
Describe something you've done to adapt to change or overcome an obstacle. How will this experience guide your future success? Now describe something a publicly traded company has done to adapt to change and explain how that makes it a good long-term investment. What other stocks, bonds or mutual funds would you combine with this company for a successful long-term portfolio and why?
Special congratulations to Kassandra Stroup for winning the state level competition! Kassandra’s essay will continue to compete at the National level.
A small award ceremony was held in the high school library. The entire Business Communications class virtually met with an Investwrite representative to present the award to Kassandra and parent. Thank you to all participating students!
Business Communications students are participating in the Spring Investwrite competition as well. We look forward to seeing the results!
Shout out to Becky Wiginton and the Bollinger County Chamber for dropping off a gift basket and copies of the new Bollinger County tourism magazine for our authors! Thank you!
