INTRODUCTION TO FFA
INTRODUCTION TO FFA
The FFA is a national organization of, by, and for students studying agriculture in public secondary schools under the provision of the National Vocational Education Acts.
A lesser known but still crucial part of our world, and even smaller so, the organization of FFA. The FFA is a nationwide program with each school possessing the "club" called chapters. Over the course of 100 years FFA has become a home to many people, and has changed the course of many young lives. No National student organization enjoys greater freedom of self-government under adult council and guidance than the FFA. Organized in November of 1928, it has served to motivate and vitalize the instruction offered to students of agriculture and to provide further training in citizenship, agriculture business and the essence of leadership.
The FFA is a non-profit, non-political youth organization designed to take its place with other students striving for the development of leadership, the advancement of agriculture technology, and the improvement of agricultural life. The foundation upon which the FFA organization is molded includes leadership, service, thrift, scholarships, improved agriculture, organized recreation, citizenship and patriotism.
National Headquarters for the FFA are located in the Agriculture Education Branch of Health, Education, and Welfare, Washington D.C. The National FFA Convention is held annually in Indianapolis, Indiana and the California Association holds its annual conference every year during the months of March and April.
This 2022-2023 Program of Activities was developed to explain the purpose of the FFA Organization and give insight into the many opportunities that are available to all agriculture students at Escondido High School.
