Speechless Sundays - Teaching Farming in Prince William County High Schools

Karen:  There are so many counties in Virginia, and in other states, that USED to be primarily agricultural areas.  The incoming urban sprawl... which just seems to be infringing at an unstoppable pace... brings many changes... and many of those changes are not the good kind.

There really IS something to be said for "the way things were."

Beautiful building. Should be restored for tours and opened to the public by the commonwealth.

Karen,

Are agricultural classes still offered?  I love that Bennett school building.  I hope it gets restored and they should paint the red brick and stone WHITE to go with that fabulous classical entrance.

Interesting!    I'm a "history buff", so appreciated your post.

Hi Karen - That's wonderful! It probably wouldn't hurt much if we were to start over, and get back to the basics....

Hi Karen, that is a beautiful building, and I the fact it was built as a tribute to the fallen soldiers is awesome.

Karen, interesting how they decided to honor the unknown soldiers.  Nice piece of history.  Thanks.  ---Gloria
