Elijah Frisby - CTE/Agriculture Mechanics and Animal Science

I am Elijah Frisby and I am one of the Agriculture Teachers and FFA Advisors here at AC Reynolds HS. I am a proud graduate of BCS in 2012 from North Buncombe. I then attended NC State and graduated from there in 2018.

My teaching career began in the fall of 2018 in a split position at Clyde A Erwin and Enka Middle Schools. In the fall of 2021 I moved to AC Reynolds HS.

Here at AC Reynolds, I teach Ag Mechanics I and II, Animal Science I and II-Food Animal, and Advanced Studies in AGNR. I also coach many of the FFA Career Development and Leadership Development Events throughout the year, including:

• Truck Safety and Skills

• Tractor Safety and Skills

• Gator Wars

• Agricultural Mechanics

• Agricultural Tools and Materials Identification

• Livestock Evaluation

• Dairy Evaluation

• Job Interview

I use Canvas as my LMS.
