Congratulations to St. Helena FFA Alumni - Alexys Bautista & Stefhany Rios! After being FFA Members for 5+ years they have earned and been awarded their American FFA Degrees. As the highest degree achievable in the National FFA Organization, the American FFA Degree shows an FFA member’s dedication to his or her chapter and state FFA association. Less than 1% of members achieve it. It demonstrates the effort FFA members apply toward their supervised agricultural experience and the outstanding leadership abilities and community involvement they exhibited through their FFA career. Candidates for the 2021 American FFA Degree will be honored as part of the 94th National FFA Convention & Expo in Indianapolis, IN.
