We are creating career connections!

We find that most people think FFA limits individuals to traditional agriculture careers, like farmer or rancher. The truth is, students are being exposed to over 300 careers in agriculture, food and natural resources!

According to a study from Purdue University, there is a positive correlation between a person’s involvement in FFA and their academic success, their career readiness, their plans for after high school and their desire to stay involved in agriculture as they go into their careers. These findings demonstrate that FFA members are high achievers in the classroom and in terms of their future careers. 

For many students, FFA is more than a club. It is a catalyst that pushes them to ask questions, to explore, and to try new things.
