We did a taste-testing with grapes last week! We can do these things since our Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Grant was doubled this year! The students tried 5 kinds of grapes: Moon Drop, Gum Drop, Cotton Candy, Red, and Green grapes. Most students and staff have never heard of the moon drop grapes, but it quickly became a favorite! Great things happen at Guy-Perkins!
I wanted to share some exciting news from last Monday! The Overtime Program took a group of high school students to the University of Arkansas College of Engineering.
