Students in Durant High School’s Technical Agriculture Operations class got hands-on with a variety of hand and power tools thanks to DeWalt and Grainger! 🔧⚡️ They explored tool safety, proper use, and even got a sneak peek at the newest gear hitting the market in the coming year. 👀✨

No alarms. No homework. Just Fall Break stuff. 😎🍁

Enjoy your time off! We wish everyone a happy and safe break.
