Friday started bright and early as our Junior and Senior Livestock Evaluation teams loaded into the van and headed out to judge some high-quality livestock! Their dedication and early mornings paid off as they put their skills to the test in one of FFA’s most competitive events. 🐖🐂🐑
We also celebrated a huge milestone for the Wood River FFA chapter—14 juniors and seniors received their State FFA Degree, the highest honor an FFA member can achieve at the state level. 🏅💙
This marks a historic moment for our program, and we couldn’t be more proud of these students and all their hard work, dedication, and commitment to agriculture and leadership.
Way to go, Eagles! 🦅💛
