GRCCA FFA is expanding our Living Classroom by creating garden spaces around our greenhouse, chicken coop, outdoor classroom, raised beds, and other areas of our school. These areas will be used for hands-on learning, student projects, and community events.
Community members and local businesses have the opportunity to sponsor sections of the garden. Sponsorships help provide plants, soil, and materials while supporting agricultural education for our students.
Sponsored garden areas will include a small sign recognizing the individual, family, or business that helped make the space possible.
If you are interested in supporting the GRCCA FFA Living Classroom, we would love to partner with you.

National FFA Week is celebrated each February and serves as a school-wide celebration of agricultural education, leadership, and student involvement. Throughout the week, students participate in dress-up days, interactive activities, service activities, and events that highlight the impact of agriculture in our community.
