Perry Central science classes have been learning about genetics and plant science. We recently had some guest speakers we would like to thank. Last week, Travis Gogel and Whitney Buechler from the NRCS taught the students about soil conservation. On Monday, Ashten Kemme, an owner of Hoosier Embryo LLC, taught students about how she uses genetic information for her livestock breeding program.
