Lehman and Hays High School students in the Buda 4-H Club attended the Hays County Livestock Show last week. They said the most important values they learn are leadership and responsibility. Many of these students are up before dawn feeding their animals. Saturday was the day students could earn money for college through the auction. Standy Adams, a senior at Hays High School, was crowned princess of the court for her club, said she earned more than $4,000 that day. She and her mom, Deanette Adams, said the money will be saved for college. She plans to attend Tarlton State University to become a kindergarten teacher, making her a fourth generation educator.
