West Carroll students had the opportunity to be part of an exciting moment for our local community this week as they attended the Trezevant Solar Farm “Flip the Switch” event!
TREZEVANT —A ceremonial event hosted by the Carroll County Electric Department and Silicon Ranch, marked the official opening of the Trezevant Solar Farm.
Students were able to visit an operating solar energy facility and get a firsthand look at an industry that connects energy, technology, agriculture, business, and skilled careers right here in our district. Students were given a chance to see how what they learn in the classroom connects to real businesses, careers, and developments happening in their own communities.
Thank you to Carroll County Electric Department and Silicon Ranch for including our students in this special event and giving them another opportunity to learn beyond the classroom.
A limited number of students from each of the county’s school systems was invited to be part of the celebration.
