Newly Revived Mt. Pleasant ag program gets new teacher

MT PLEASANT — It’s that time of year again, teachers and families are preparing for a new school year. Take some time to get to know the newest teachers to the area.

Brady Martin

The newly reestablished agriculture program at Mt. Pleasant High School is under new leadership.

Brady Martin will fill the role of agriculture education teacher and FFA adviser.

A Central Lee High School graduate, Martin grew up in the small town of Farmington with his parents and two siblings.
