Goats in the Courtyard!
Today, our students were able to meet some of the goats they've been feeding with their food scraps as part of our TAN Green Team garbage reduction program. Mrs. Frizzell from Kiss Someone Cute Ranch brought Creamsicle, a one year old, Juice & Opie, six weeks each, and two brand new babies (Miss Delaney and Misdemeanor) born only ten days ago. The goats were a big hit with plenty of ooohs and aaaahs eminating from the courtyard during lunch recess.
It was a win-win visit for everyone. Our students gained experience dealing with animals and learned the value of their food scrap collection program while the goats learned how to interact with humans, an important trait for when they need to have their hooves trimmed or go to the vet. And just like human babies, they were exhausted from all the stimulation and slept all the way back to the farm.
Bottom line: If your child comes home from school asking you for a pet goat, what else can we say but we're sorry - they were SOOOO cute.
