On Tuesday, January 17 Oasis Academy celebrated National Milk Day. The National Day is typically recognized on January 11, but due to a snow day and Martin Luther King, Jr. Day it was moved the following Tuesday.
Kindergarten through eighth grade students enjoyed a cold carton of whole milk to help celebrate the day. The Model Dairy milk was donated by the Dairy Farmers of America with the help of Jared and Katrina Laca.
Recognizing days like National Milk Day are important to Oasis Academy as it provided an opportunity to share with students information about Fallon’s dairy industry.
“Agriculture and dairies are a major economic base of this community,” said Rochelle Tisdale, Interim Chief Executive Officer. “I am so pleased that DFA donated the milk to keep us mindful of how impactful this industry is. Thank you for your generosity.”
