In early February, Madras FFA took 24 students to compete in 12 different FFA events including but not limited to: Public Speaking, Parliamentary Law, Scrapbooking, and Job Interviewing. For 22 of these students, it was their first time competing in their competition! Several of our students found success in Prineville.

FFA and our agriculture CTE pathway at MHS offer our students hands-on learning, leadership development, teamwork skills, and a place to learn skills to get them prepared for their future careers.
