November Meeting Agenda
What is FFA?
» 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.
