Today, we had the privilege of welcoming our legislators and Board of Elementary and Secondary Education Chair Craven to Bristol Aggie! 🎉 We were proud to recognize the incredible work of the 190th General Court of the Commonwealth, whose efforts made our school’s renovation possible.
A special thank you to former Representative Haddad and former Senator Marc Pacheco for their instrumental role in this process. Their dedication helped shape the future of BA, and we are grateful for their lasting impact.
We deeply appreciate the continued support from our local legislators, ensuring that our students have the resources they need to thrive in the classroom and be prepared for the workforce and post secondary education. It was an honor to host them today and celebrate our shared commitment to education!

Andrew Ronin from Notch Your Average Tree Care was out with Arbor Juniors today working with Ms. Parent to help teach students how to use and work off a Spider lift. Students have recently been learning about different types of Aerial lifts. This particular lift, due to its more compact size, is a game changer in the industry allowing professionals access to tighter spaces.
Students also got to practice different types of cuts removing dead material and taking down parts of the tree that span over our landscape shed building!
Juniors in Equine Science worked to groom our horses and make grain! Pictured is one of our horses from before being groomed to after.

Yesterday, we held a more formal weekly assembly with our students and staff as a follow-up to last week's town hall on the proposed changes to the admissions lottery and how they could impact Bristol Aggie's future.
Mrs. Minster, Mr. Costa, and Mr. Braga led an important discussion, ensuring our community is informed about these regulation changes. More importantly, they encouraged our students to use their voices-to share their perspectives with the Board of Education and local legislators.
Your voice matters. Your hard work, dedication, and passion for agricultural education define what it means to be a Bristol Aggie student. This is your opportunity to advocate for what you believe in! Let's keep the conversation going! #CultivatingExcellence #BAPride #YourVoiceMatters

Workplace Wednesday!
Our Junior Co-op student highlight is Trinity Recupero! Trinity works at Secret Garden Pet Resort in Bridgewater. She is a Kennel attendant where she completes tasks such as cleaning kennels, exercising the dogs, and taking care of any basic needs required. Her favorite part of the job is forming bonds with the dogs as well as the kind welcoming environment! This job benefits Trinity because it expands her experience in the work force. We’d like to thank Secret Garden Pet Resort for supplying our students with a wonderful place to get real world experience in the work force!
Our Senior Co-op student highlight is Collin Maguy! Collin Maguy is a senior student worker here at Bristol Aggie working as a Field-crop worker! His responsibilities include tending to our fields as well as working within our barns taking care of the animals. His favorite part of the job is working with new people as well as working with the machinery. This job benefits Collin because it gives him a different perspective of how a working far is run and it teaches him experiences beyond what he has already learned. We are grateful to have hard working students on our campus that go above and beyond to tend to our school grounds!

New York Department of Environmental Conservation (NY DEC) fisheries biologist, and Bristol Aggie Natural Resources Management (NRM) alumni, Jim Pinheiro addressed the NRM and Environmental Engineering upperclassmen as part of the Bristol Aggie Environmental Conservation Department Professional Speaker Series. Each month a professional from a different field presents to the students about their jobs. The fun stuff and not-so-fun stuff are covered. Professionals tell of the varied, often winding, career paths and offer tips for aspiring conservation scientists and environmental managers.
Jim described the many adventures he has had tracking and managing freshwater fish in Upstate New York and the meetings, phone calls, budgets, and spreadsheets that also make up a typical work week for him. He also explained his own journey from Bristol Aggie to the NY DEC.
