Carter High School Students Help Show Animals at Dixie Classic and N. C. State Fair

For the past few years, students at Carter High School have been showing animals at the Dixie Classic and N.C. State fairs.

Often the Carter students do that in partnership with a youth exhibitor. Sometimes, the connections made the first year lead to continuing to show with the same youth exhibitor in following years. Even after the Carter students graduate, they may continue the partnership.

The fair tradition continued this year. 

"I would like to thank all the people at the Dixie Classic and State Fair for all of the many wonderful things they do to make this event so very special for the students and their families," said Claudette Goodwin, who teaches agriculture at Carter. "It means a lot to them, and it means a lot to me."
