Grossi
Larry Grossi of Grossi Fabrication provides some information about ag welding to a group of eighth graders for Ag Day on the EHS campus on Friday.
An estimated 160 eighth grade students from El Portal spent some time on the Escalon High School campus on Friday, learning more about the opportunities available to them in the agricultural industry. The Ag Day program, which had students rotating through several different stations, was hosted by the Escalon High School FFA and Ag Department, which brought in a variety of guest speakers. El Portal assistant principal Mike Gaston said the day offers students the chance to be on the high school campus, where they will be next year as freshmen, and get a taste of the ag life.
