This month's ACE "A Caring Educator" Award winner features a Hedgesville High School vocational agriculture teacher who has worked for over two decades raising the future generations of farmers. Please join us in recognizing Chris VanDyne!

Principal Ron Lyons credits Mr. VanDyne for his willingness to try anything. From farming, to horticulture, to welding, and beekeeping, he encourages students to pursue their passions in careers where there is a critical need!

Mr. VanDyne, you set the bar for our students in your VoAg program, and we want to say THANK YOU for your dedication!
