Weston-McEwen High School

Columbia River Dairy in Boardman, Oregon hosted WMHS Animal Science students for a learning tour on their farm. Students got to experience a diary that milks 36,000 cows, see live births, and learn about their farming and irrigation program. This farm offers scholarships of $10,000 for its interns and pays them for summer work. Thank you for this wonderful learning opportunity!
