Last week, some of our students had the incredible opportunity to attend the FFA National Convention in Indianapolis! ๐บ๐ธ
During the event, students explored at least three college booths of interest and attended two engaging student workshops โ all while connecting with FFA members and advisors from across the country. A few even took on the fun challenge of finding students from all 50 states!
With over 73,000 members in attendance, it was an unforgettable experience for both our students and advisors. Weโre so proud of their excitement for leadership, learning, and growth through FFA!
