MHS’s Ag Teacher Dominique Bickford (DeMoss) earned the CATA Outstanding Young Member Award after six years of teaching.
On CATA’s website they states, “The purpose of this award is to encourage and recognize outstanding young agricultural education teachers for their participation and leadership in civic, community, agriculture/agribusiness, and professional activities.”
Dominique took to her Facebook to thank all the people who have shaped and instilled excellent qualities in her. Dom went on to say, “I am thankful for my husband, who helps me with anything I ask from watering the greenhouse, to setting up flowers for a wedding, making a hog waterer, or simply making sure I have a meal when I am too busy for it. I am thankful for my ag teacher friends who always answer a call or dumb question I have, and do way cooler stuff than me in their programs, so I have people to admire and aspire to be. I am thankful for my family who passed along the work ethic genetics. I am thankful for every mentor I’ve had. I am thankful for Modoc High School, the admin, the staff, the students, and the community that supports Alturas FFA.”
