At Garces Memorial High School, agriculture education is about so much more than showing animals at the Fair or studying in the classroom. Every student who takes an agricultural course becomes part of the National FFA Organization—a place where students discover their strengths, build leadership skills, and gain hands-on experience that prepares them for life beyond high school.

Our Agriculture Business Pathway offers a four-year sequence of UC-approved courses, dual-enrollment opportunities with Bakersfield College—allowing students to earn college credit while still in high school—and an exciting internship option for seniors. This unique program combines classroom learning, real-world experiences, and leadership development, helping students grow in confidence, character, and faith.

The Garces Agriculture Program changes lives. It equips students for premier leadership, personal growth, and career success while offering a supportive community where they can explore their interests and discover their future.

This year, we’re excited to offer a variety of agriculture courses designed to challenge, inspire, and encourage students to make the most of every opportunity. We pray that each student finds not only success in the program but also a true sense of belonging within the Garces Agriculture Education family.

We invite you and your family to join us at Garces and be part of our growing Agriculture and FFA community—where faith, leadership, and opportunity come together.
