FFA Week: Maroa-Forsyth Reaching Out to Younger Students

Maroa-Forsyth celebrates FFA Week by reaching all the district's students. 

 

On the WHOW Afternoon Farm Show Tuesday, Maroa-Forsyth FFA Chapter President Taylor Crouch told Regional Radio that they've been working hard to make an impact on all the areas of the school. 

 

Chapter Reporter Emery Bunselmeyer explains that they visit with the Maroa-Forsyth 8th graders to learn more about their interests and encourage them to join FFA when they reach high school.

 

The chapter recently received a $2,000 grant that will allow them to go and teach younger students about pigs and the pork industry. Bunselmeyer mentions that the grant goes towards the teaching materials and activities for the students. 

 

While reaching young students has always been a tradition for FFA Week, Crouch notes that it doesn't end after Friday. In March they will dive deeper into all that FFA has to offer with those students.
