Bennett FFA Chapter

 » FFA is an intracurricular student organization for those interested in agriculture and leadership.
 » As a student enrolled in agriculture education, your child is automatically a member of the FFA.
 » Participation in FFA is a part of the ag. ed. curriculum so that is why you will see it in the grading
    scale.
 » There are multiple competitive events that your student can participate in, including Leadership
    Development Events (LDE's) ex. speaking events, and Career Development Events (CDE's)
    ex. agricultural sales.
