The Eastern States Exposition (ESE) Trustees Scholarship is offered annually to students residing in New England who have participated in ESE’s youth agricultural programs. This year’s recipient from Massachusetts is Taylor Mayer of Rehoboth, Mass. Mayer is a recent graduate of Bristol County Agricultural High School where she majored in veterinary science. She was an active member of the National Honor Society, a member of the FFA and a frequent competitor and exhibitor in 4-H events through her club. At The Big E, Mayer competed in the ESE Heritage Horse Show for three years in a row (2023-2025). She claims it is one of her favorite competitions, and states she looks forward to it annually. We are thrilled to hear about our graduates’ success. Congratulations, Taylor!🎉🙌 #BAPride #CultivatingExcellence

Juniors in Arboriculture are spending their planting/transplanting unit working hands-on around our campus. The students were working on transplanting a native tree to Massachusetts, carefully exposing root flares and ensuring proper care to the tree.🌳🪏 #BAPride #CultivatingExcellence #Arboriculture #Transplanting #HandsOnLearning

Students in Mrs. Hopkins’ Biology classes experienced firsthand how matter cycles through ecosystems this week. Students became carbon atoms, traveling between stations representing the biotic and abiotic components of the carbon cycle. At each station, they rolled to determine where their carbon would travel next and collected a bead representing how the carbon was incorporated, such as CO₂ in the atmosphere, carbohydrates produced through photosynthesis, or carbon stored as fossil fuels. Each student’s unique string of beads provided a visual representation of their journey. This hands-on, kinesthetic simulation helped students see that the carbon cycle is not a linear pathway, but a dynamic process in which matter is continually recycled through ecosystems. #BAPride #CultivatingExcellence

🏆 BA EXCELLENCE AWARD 🏆 Today at our morning assembly, we were proud to recognize Mrs. Cutner as a recipient of the Bristol Aggie Excellence Award! 💚💛 The BA Excellence Award recognizes members of our community who consistently go above and beyond for Bristol Aggie and our students—and Mrs. Cutner’s nomination made it clear just how meaningful her impact has been. Students described Mrs. Cutner as someone whose classroom is always open, who celebrates their accomplishments, supports them through difficult moments, and is often the person “cheering the loudest” for their success. Whether she is taking extra time to explain a difficult concept, giving up a free period to help a student, staying after school, or going into what her students affectionately call “mom mode,” Mrs. Cutner makes sure her students know they are valued and supported. Her impact extends far beyond mathematics. Through her kindness, patience, positivity, and genuine investment in her students, Mrs. Cutner helps young people recognize strengths in themselves that they may not yet see. Congratulations, Mrs. Cutner, and thank you for continually going above and beyond for our students and the Bristol Aggie community! 👏🐏💚💛 #BristolAggie #BAExcellence #AboveAndBeyond #BAPride #StudentSuccess #BristolAggieExcellence

At today’s Post-Secondary Fair, students had the opportunity to connect with colleges, programs, and career opportunities as they plan for their journey beyond high school. Thank you so much to everyone who volunteered their time this afternoon to connect with and engage with our students!

🌿 Environmental Engineering Hits the Trails! 🌿 EE instructor Ms. Canuel and Vocational Coordinator Mrs. Fullen hit the road Wednesday morning with our Environmental Engineering sophomores for a hands-on morning of habitat restoration and invasive species management! Students worked alongside members of the @Rehoboth Land Trust and @Save The Bay, including Wenley Ferguson, Director of Habitat Restoration; Meaghan Gomes, Save The Bay Intern; Carol Entin, President of the Rehoboth Land Trust; and Dan Lanier, Clerk of the Rehoboth Land Trust. Throughout the day, students learned about the impact invasive plant species can have on native ecosystems while helping remove species such as knapweed and honeysuckle. They explored several methods professionals use to manage invasive plants, including solarization and occultation, mechanical extraction, and chemical extraction. Then it was time to get to work! 💪🌱 Students put mechanical extraction techniques into practice using tools such as weed wrenches, loppers, and a Weed Slayer to remove invasive vegetation. But habitat restoration isn't just about what you remove—it's also about what you put back! Students helped plant native species, including winterberry, elderberry, and swamp rose to support the restoration of a healthier native plant community. Experiences like this bring the Environmental Engineering curriculum to life, allowing our students to learn directly from professionals while applying their skills to meaningful conservation work right here in our local communities. A huge thank you to the Rehoboth Land Trust and Save The Bay for sharing your time, expertise, and passion for habitat restoration with our students! 🌎🌿 #BristolAggie #EnvironmentalEngineering #HandsOnLearning #HabitatRestoration #InvasiveSpecies #NativePlants #RehobothLandTrust #SaveTheBay #Conservation #AggieInAction

Seniors in Mrs. Hussey's psychology class got to do a hands-on activity labelling the lobes of the brain! Students put on shower caps to draw and label each section, along with a description of its function.

This week's High Five is Maddie Sylvester! She's one of our amazing PR interns and does so much for our school. Congrats Maddie! 🙌🌟

Equine Seniors are practicing a method of training called "long lining." This is used to work on listening cues and using reins while not saddled up. Juniors had some riding time and worked with the horses!

Sneak Peek! Our Landscape and Design upperclassmen are beginning their Fall Show exhibits, which will incorporate all of the skills they have been learning and practicing. Check out the final displays at Fall Show in the Landscape/Arbor building!

We’re excited to host our 6th Annual Post-Secondary Fair this Friday! More than 53 representatives from colleges and universities, the military, unions, and public and private companies will be on campus to meet with our students and share information about the many opportunities available after high school. Throughout the school day, sophomores, juniors, and seniors will have the opportunity to visit the gymnasium, connect directly with representatives, ask questions, and explore pathways in college, careers, skilled trades, military service, and more! This is a fantastic opportunity for our students to explore what their future could look like, and we are so excited to welcome all of our participating representatives to Bristol Aggie later this week! We can’t wait for a great day of connections, conversations, and future planning! #BristolAggie #PostSecondaryFair #CollegeAndCareerReady #FutureReady #CareerExploration
