Learning goes beyond textbooks—students thrive when they’re actively engaged. That’s why schools are embracing hands-on experiences that bring real-world skills to life, like cooking! This approach was on full display yesterday at the Future Chefs Competition, where third through fifth-grade students from North Wasco County School District showcased their creativity and culinary talents.

North Wasco County School District is proud to announce that Leah Ferguson has been named the recipient of the Oregon ACTE New Teacher of the Year award.
