Over summer, Red Bluff High School hired a new agricultural teacher, Lacy Trunnell. She has been teaching AG for five years, this being her sixth. She taught for three years at Florin High in Sacra- mento, and two years at Central Valley in Shasta Lake City. Trunnell has been in- volved in agriculture for quite some time. She grew up in Fall River Mills, spent her summers on a ranch in Half Moon Bay and showed hogs through 4-H and FFA from the age nine to 18. In high school and through college she worked at local floral shops in Fall River Mills and San Luis Obispo. Lacy studied at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo for six years. While attending SLO she received a bach- elor's degree in Agricul- ture Science and a creden- tial and master's degree in Agricultural Education. When asked what her goals are this year at Red Bluff High, she said she hopes to get to know the students, build a relation- ship with them and find her fit in the community. She loves teaching agricul- tural and helping students grow while maintaining their endeavors. Trunnell enjoys floricul- ture and is very excited to teach both beginning and advanced floral at Red Bluff High. Along with flo- ral she's also the Ag Chem- istry teacher, which is a course that was added to the department last year. Trunnell is excited to be able to teach Ag Chemis- try, which allows her to tie science into this very agri- cultural based community. She two large classes full of eager students to learn this exciting subject and get more hands on with the community. Trunnell is a fun and outgoing lady who enjoys crafty projects. Some of her hobbies include craft- ing, scrap booking, ar- ranging flowers, garden- ing and baking. Red Bluff High's Ag de- partment welcomes her with open arms and is very excited to see her grow in her successes throughout this upcoming year.
