Posted

McKENZIE (November 6) — Lindsey Parham, the agriculture teacher at McKenzie High School, is one of 13 educators. Speaking at the McKenzie Board of Education, Parham thanked board members for allowing her to participate in the program and to miss five days of instruction to do so.
As part of Weststar, the program is in its inaugural year and is designed to expose teachers to variety of topics, including industrial production, poverty, gang violence, sextortian, STEM education, and team building. She said she would love to see a STEM program at MHS.
