May 1, 2025 Local Stories in and Around St. Joseph, Illinois

KIDS SAY…

Every week we ask five students from a local school to answer a question on a worksheet.

This week the students are first graders at St. Joseph Grade School. This post is sponsored by Longview Bank.

Would you want to be a farmer? Why or why not?


Leighton: I would like to be a farmer because I could have something I like and like animals.


Cassidy: I don’t like to get drte.


Bailey Rose Darling: Because I can be around the cute animals.


Camaron: No because I don’t like chickens.


Tyson: I would be a farmer.
