WOODBURY — Nonnewaug has always been an agriscience school, and the school continues to grow partly because of a principal with an agriculture background.

This Chief Advocate Podcast episode is focused on Dr. Mykal Kuslis’ background in agriculture and how he carries this into a school environment and his everyday life. He owns Kuslis Farm in Watertown.

Maya Hines and Sophia Lingley hosted this podcast to focus on his background and how it impacts Nonnewaug.
