Huge congratulations are in order for Bryant Crocker and Gabe Fronick!

Earning a Missouri FFA State Degree is no small feat - it is the highest honor the state association can bestow upon its members. This isn't just an award for a single project; it’s the culmination of years of grit, late nights, and relentless dedication to their Supervised Agricultural Experience (SAE) programs.

Only a small percentage of FFA members ever reach this level. To see these two seniors cross the finish line after four years of hard work is a testament to the kind of leaders and workers they’ve become.

We are incredibly proud of your hustle and your heart. The future of agriculture is looking bright with guys like you in the lead!

They say experience is the best teacher, and today proved it. 🌾

​To wrap up National FFA Week, our students toured a local farm to see the "business end" of agriculture. Whether it was watching machinery work or learning how hay is managed throughout the year, these students didn't miss a beat.

​Thank you to our hardworking students for a great week, and to our school staff for supporting our chapter and our mission. We couldn't do it without you! 🤝

Here is the Events for FFA Week. If you have any questions. Please email Mr. Boyd.

Also, don't forget to do sign ups on Google Classroom!

Today was the first day of National FFA Week! 🌾
To kick off the week, we visited Cold Creek Cowboy Church in Mansfield. We had a fantastic turnout and even snagged some door prizes! 🤠

​FFA Week is our time to celebrate the heritage of agriculture and the bright future of our student leaders. We’re excited for the rest of the week!

​FOR TOMORROW:
✨ Spirit Day: PJ Day
✨ Member Perk: Sweet treats at lunch!

Yesterday was a great day for our chapter!
We were thrilled to host Lindsey McDonald, Missouri FFA State Vice President.
​Lindsey led workshops focused on leadership and the endless opportunities available to every student within FFA. Our members walked away inspired and ready to lead!
​A huge thank you to Lindsey and Missouri FFA Association for investing in our students. We appreciate your time and the wonderful impact you made!
