JWP Agricultural Education & FFA

What is Agricultural Education?

Agricultural education prepares students for successful careers and a lifetime of informed choices in the global agriculture, food, fiber and natural resources systems.

Through agricultural education, students are provided opportunities for leadership development, personal growth, and career success. Agricultural education instruction is delivered through three major components:

• Classroom/Laboratory instruction (contextual learning)

• FFA (leadership development)

• Supervised Agricultural Experiences - SAE (work-based learning)

All three components exist within the framework of the Janesville-Waldorf-Pemberton Agricultural Education Program.
