Hartford – State Representatives John Piscopo (R-76) and Whit Betts (R-78) welcomed Vocational Agriculture (Vo-Ag) students from Wamogo Regional High School to the State Capitol last week. The students were visiting during the state’s annual Ag Day, a day which serves to celebrate agriculture in Connecticut, and highlight the state’s various agricultural programs by the more than 50 organizations and state and federal agencies in attendance from across Connecticut. The students had the opportunity to meet with Reps. Piscopo and Betts, and speak with them about the Vo-Ag program at Wamogo, advocating not only for the program, but also for increasing the number of students accepted into the program from Litchfield and surrounding towns.

According to the school’s website, Wamogo serves students from Warren, Morris and Goshen Connecticut. Children from seven additional towns may apply to the national award winning Agri-science program. In addition to the comprehensive course of study, students in Agri-science choose courses in mechanics, natural resources, animal science and horticulture.
