What a way to start the first week of school!

ECHS FFA has been recognized as a National 3-Star Chapter by the National FFA organization!

This prestigious honor is the highest recognition an FFA chapter can receive at the national level, and it is a true reflection of the hard work, dedication, and impact of our members each and every day

We are incredibly honored by this achievement and want to thank our members, parents, school, district, and community for supporting our program and helping ECHS FFA continue to excel.

We are looking forward to a great year!

Our officer team spent the weekend on beautiful St. Helena Island, South Carolina for Chapter Officer Leadership Training (C**T)!
During our retreat, officers worked together to develop the calendar for the upcoming school year, plan chapter meetings and activities, and strengthen their leadership skills.
The weekend provided a great opportunity to build relationships, grow as a team, and enjoy the incredible scenery.
We are excited to put our plans into action and make this year one of the best yet!

We had an incredible time at the 98th Georgia FFA Convention in Macon! 💙💛

On Thursday, we kicked things off by giving back by partnering with Rebuilding Macon to help paint a home for a local resident, followed by time at the career fair exploring future opportunities in agriculture.

Friday was all about celebrating achievements as we recognized our State Degree recipients, then wrapped up the night with an amazing concert from Will Moseley 🎶

Saturday brought even more excitement as we heard from Governor Brian Kemp and were honored to be recognized as a Gold Emblem Chapter ⭐️

We are so proud of our students and all they accomplished this week!

We are beyond proud to announce that ECHS FFA has earned the Gold Emblem Chapter Award! ⭐️🏆

This prestigious honor is only given to the top 10% of chapters in the state for excellence in leadership, community service, and agricultural education. We will be recognized next week at the 98th Georgia FFA convention, and our application will advance to National FFA for further judging!

Success is a collective effort. Thank you to our officers, members, and community for your ongoing commitment to our students and program!
