But about seventy percent of kids quit playing by the age of thirteen, often due to overscheduling, excessive training or pressure to perform.

Students rotated through various hands-on stations that included lessons on urban gardening, the evolution of agriculture equipment, crop production, wildlife, and natural resources.
