But while agriculture is still a thriving market in Lorenzo, technology programs in the school district are giving students some other options for the future.

One of the programs is called STEM.

It stands for Science, Technology, Engineering and Math and the program includes a competitive robotics team.

Lorenzo competed against some of the best robotics teams in the world in St. Louis, and while the program is geared toward technology - it's not only future engineers who are involved in STEM.

"The kids through it learn the program, how to use electronics, how to work with a budget, how to work with other people and teamwork."

The team won the Hub City regional competition last year and went on to compete against teams from all over the world.
