DENTON — Jodi Callahan, animal and plant science instructor at the Caroline Career and Technology Center, was recently named the Maryland Agriculture Teachers Association's 2018-19 animal science educator of the year.
Callahan was recognized at the Caroline County Board of Education's meeting Tuesday, Oct. 1, for her achievement.
"Word is getting around about all the great things she does," said Gene Smith, principal of the Caroline Career and Technology Center.
Smith praised Callahan for her efforts to bring hands-on learning opportunities to her students, and for leading the local Future Farmers of America chapter.
Callahan said she is a third-generation FFA member. Her parents met through agriculture classes in high school, and now Callahan’s daughter is a proud FFA member as well.
