Why should Pulaski Students Attend: 

Pulaski students will be asked to imagine a world where adventure hides behind every corner -- a world where family and opportunity to check out the career show, help recognize distinguished members and guests, hear from dynamic speakers  and be inspired by energetic and motivating general sessions. Pulaski students will have the experience of their lifetime, get motivated and motivate a friend. They will utter the first two words of the creed, “I believe” one more time and discover what it is they believe in. Participants will be ready to make those beliefs realities as a part of this years theme “ENGAGE”. They will join other student leaders from across the country to come together and celebrate those beliefs at the National FFA Convention. The streets of Indianapolis, Indiana will be flooded with blue jackets as students spread the message of agriculture,  engage in National Days of Service, participate in interactive workshops, take part in rigorous career development events and meet fellow FFA members from across the nation, Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands.
