Ag Ball
In an effort to raise money for Children's Hospital we play FFA Basketball. We ask members to gain pledges from people so we can raise money and awareness for Children's hospital while still enjoying ourselves. Our chapter held our first ever Ag Basketball tournament. We also attended National Trail and Preble Shawnee's tournaments. Our varsity had a great season of Ag Ball!
National FFA Week
On February 17th- 24th we asked FFA members as well as the rest of our school to participate in a week of dressing up to promote agriculture. We had multiple themed days to dress up such as beach day, twin day, farmer day, and national blue and corn gold day. In addition to that, we made a breakfast for all of the teachers and staff of our school to show our appreciation.
The Wall
If you have walked down the Ag hallway recently you may have noticed the new paint job! We are ecstatic to announce our wall of fame. Ths wall was made to give recognition to State and American Degree recipients over the years.
8th Grade Recruitment
In an effort to recruit new members we hold an informational and fun tour/lesson of what FFA is and what a day in the classroom would look like. On March 16th our chapter held 8th-grade requirement for all upcoming high schoolers. We gave them an overall presentation of what ag really is, we then split them into 3 group and put them in rotations to tour the greenhouse, shop, and the classroom. After that, we all met together in the gym to play a fun, engaging game. This event is a great way to invite new members to join as well as try to get to know them before the new school year.
