    EAGLE — Tucked among the quiet roads of rural Waukesha County, roadside farm stands are a summer staple — offering fresh produce and flowers, usually sold on the honor system.

One of the best parts of this job is when former students return to talk to our current students. It was awesome to have @KayleeStaral back to talk to our students about her journalism story and how she is absolutely crushing it as a reporter up at WTMJ 4 up in Milwaukee. https://t.co/FyByv2YIdk
