Freeman High School

Here are the highlights of the last month or two in the Freeman High School ag classes and FFA program.

The Ag Leadership class is mentoring the Kindergarteners this semester.  So far, the class has helped them with Valentine’s day projects, read books, colored pages, and got to eat Stone Soup with their Kindergarten buddies.
The FFA Recycling program continues to be a success this year, having recycled 2,154 lbs of paper and magazines and 375 lbs of newspaper.
Congratulations to Sara Marker, Sarah Page, Abbey Klein, Anna Jurgens, Evan Buss, Jeffrey Wallman, Ashley Ayres, and Anna Harder (alternate) on being accepted to the 2010 State FFA Chorus.  They will perform at the State FFA Convention in April.  Evan Buss, Eric Rapp, Kyle Schlake, and Kristen Andersen have applied and interviewed for the State FFA Degree.  Kristen Andersen qualified for the state Sr. Public Speaking Leadership Skills Event after placing first in the district contest in January.
National FFA Week activities were conducted during the week of February 22nd through 26th.  Eric Rapp and Kyle Schlake recorded public service announcements that were aired on KWBE radio.  The officers led the pledge of allegiance every morning at school that week, and the elementary grades participated in the annual ag drawing or coloring contest.  Also, the following activities were conducted each day:
Monday – Chapter T-Shirt Day
Tuesday – Diggin for Worms Activity
Wednesday – Haybale Throwing Contest
Thursday – Dress Like Mr. Jensen Day
Friday – Tractor / Farm Vehicle Day
