The Summer Agricultural Institute is a graduate level class held at Tarleton State University in Stephenville. The week-long Institute provides teachers in grades K-6 with hands-on activities and ideas about agriculture that can be used to enrich their classrooms. Those attending the Institute receive three hours of graduate credit, 45 clock hours of Professional Development credit, and an abundance of resources that can be used in their classrooms.
Scholarships are available through the local county Farm Bureau office.
