Honorary Chapter FFA Degree

Milton-Union MVCTC FFA Chapter is honored to have the opportunity to recognize local community members who are helping to advance the agricultural education program and the FFA Chapter, who have rendered outstanding service our students. This year we recognize Mr. Scott Paulus. Milton-Union MVCTC would not be able to do special projects without all community members there to help along the way.
