Agriculture Education courses at Stanwood High School provide students with the opportunity to explore and develop skills used in many industries. Through hands on, application based instruction these courses allow students to learn in an environment that closely resembles the world of work. Agriculture Education is not just about farming. We offer courses in Agriculture Science (Applied Science), Horticulture, Animal & Veterinary Science, Natural Resources, and Mechanical Technology (welding, machining, small gas engines, etc).
