About
Brawley FFA
A student-led organization with just under 200 members. FFA gives students opportunities to grow and become leaders. We take pride in our members, hard work, dedication, and achievements. Agriculture is our #1 pursuit. We are more than an ag-club, we are an FFAmily!
Our mission is dedicated to making a positive difference in the lives of students by developing their potential for premier leadership, personal growth, and career success through agricultural education.
2023-24 Officer Team
The Brawley FFA Nominating Committee consisting of community members, former officers, and school supporting staff conduct interview in the Spring to fill the office team positions. Being an officer of the Brawley FFA Chapter is a privilege and comes through hard work. Nominees are scored on their application, involvement, interview, and campaign speech given to the chapter.
