Best FFA Activity: Parliamentary Procedures
Why should a student join an ag class: Students should join because of the incredible opportunities Ag provides, teaching students to become leaders through community, responsibilities and teamwork.
Favorite FFA Memory: My favorite memory was one of our last competitions, State veggie finals at cal poly. We got to have fun at the beach, shops, food, and swimming at the pool while we were supposed to get practicing. Notoriously our veggie team didn't have the best record when it came to scoring, but that day we scored 5th in the State for Judging and we were so excited; mainly Mr Murray. It was such a positive way to end off the year and will remain one of my best Ag memories for a long time.

Best FFA Activity: State Conference
Why should a student join an ag class: Students should join an agricultural class because Agriculture education provides students with hands-on experiences that go far beyond the classroom. Through labs, Supervised Agricultural Experiences (SAE’s), and FFA, students develop leadership, communication, teamwork, and career-ready skills while exploring their passions and preparing for future opportunities.
Favorite FFA Memory: My favorite memory was attending the State Conference for the first time. It reminded me that FFA is so much bigger than my own chapter. Being surrounded by passionate members inspired me to become a stronger leader and better serve those around me.

Best FFA Activity: Parlimentary Procedure
Why should a student join an ag class: Ag classes give students so many opportunities to be able to connect with other students and learn more about themselves as well. It opens up a world of possibilities and chances to branch out to a world that may be unfamiliar to many students.
Favorite FFA Memory: My favorite FFA Memory would be going to UC Davis. It was the first time I had gone on an overnight trip through ffa. I was a little nervous at first but throughout the trip I was able to connect with other students and learn more about my fellow ffa members. It gave me experience of being in an unfamiliar place but still feeling confident enough to do my competition like creed and BIG.

Best FFA Activity: Stars Agventure Day
Why should a student join an ag class: Students should join an Agriculture class because Agriculture is an amazing class that can teach you amazing things. Agriculture is far beyond farming and in an Agriculture class you learn all about that! Not to mention the hands-on activities that you get involved in both in and out of class, an Agriculture class can also help you gain many skills for example a Supervised Agriculture Experience project or (SAE) can help you gain skills like leadership and problem solving all while working on a project you enjoy!
Favorite FFA Memory: My favorite memory was the Stars Adventure Day this is my favorite memory because we got to show many kindergartners how great agriculture is but that's not it, seeing how happy they were learning about agriculture and where the food and clothing from their everyday life comes from all the while having fun made me never want to forget this day,I wasn't just building community I was teaching those kids about agriculture and it was incredible!

Best FFA Activity: Creed Speaking
Why should a student join an ag class: Students should join an agriculture class because it gives them something to get involved in both inside and outside of the classroom. Ag is a unique experience because it is not just a different type of class, but also an opportunity to participate in different events such as meetings and competitions. Being in an ag class can also help you choose a career path. Ag classes will allow you to take certain pathways that regular classes don’t offer, such as a vet science or ag business. This gives students an opportunity to learn about different career possibilities hands on. There is something for everyone to excel in when you are in an agriculture pathway.
Favorite FFA Memory: My favorite FFA memory was when we went to UC Davis and competing in the creed competition. This experience allowed me to spend time with other FFA members and get to know them better. We even got to go bowling together and we had a lot of fun. It was a good experience competing there, but also nice to hang out with everyone outside of school and regular FFA activities.

Best FFA Activity: Parli Pro
Why should a student join an ag class: Joining an agriculture class will help you gain so many vital skills. It will make you step out of your comfort zone and help you become the best you can possibly be. These classes help educate on agriculture, which a lot of people don’t really understand, along with other information that isn’t shared in other classes.
Favorite FFA Memory: My favorite FFA memory was the Novice Parli Pro competitions I participated in, they were so exciting and a great way for me to step out of my shell and bond with other FFA members. As someone who is normally shy, these gave me the opportunity to become more outgoing and excited to do more for our chapter.

Best FFA Activity: Parli Pro
Why should a student join an ag class: Students should join an agricultural class for a multitude of reasons. Having an agricultural class opens many doors for students allowing for different pathways. Animal systems for those who love veterinary science, agriculture mechanics for those who prefer a more hands-on approach, or even agricultural business for those focused on management and sales, and many other pathways. But behind the class is a family. Being in an agriculture class means you’re automatically an FFA member which also means you’re a part of a family with endless support. Being in an agricultural class gives you opportunities for different pathways and to meet new people.
Favorite FFA Memory: My favorite memory in FFA was parli pro. At first my team wasn’t the best, and it showed at our first competition, but watching us grow and learn was the fun part. I built bonds with my teammates, through many practices and hundreds of laughs we improved so much that we made it to top 12 at state. Parli was so fun I got to meet new people, and build strong friendships with my teammates.
