On Thursday, February 1st, (coinciding perfectly with February’s celebration of National Career and Technical Education (CTE) Month), Finley’s CTE Teacher and FFA Advisor Jennifer Yochum, along with Finley FFA Chapter’s officer team, was presented with a $2500 check from AgWest Farm Credit. Through its Rural Community Grant, AgWest grant dollars will be used by Finley’s FFA chapter to replace project backgrounds and displays the FFA members use when showcasing their projects and educating the public on agriculture.
“By helping us secure these resources, AgWest Farm Credit is making a significant contribution to agricultural education and awareness in our community,” says Mrs. Yochum. “The project backdrops play a pivotal role in showcasing the hard work and dedication of Finley’s FFA members all while educating the general public on students' projects. These backdrops are used for many years to help students display their livestock and animal projects and educate the community."
Thank you, AgWest, for supporting Finley's students!
