FFA continues to have full days at the National FFA Convention in Indianapolis. Their day started with the FFA shopping mall and the Expo. There are 500ish businesses, colleges and activities for the students to check out. We had a great motivational speaker at our opening session and ended the evening with a rodeo. Visit their Facebook page for more trip highlights.

A little magic happened yesterday in Mrs. Abbott's culinary class as the students made biscuits and gravy during our fourth hour class.
Some Journalism students left for Boston on Monday to attend the national convention. The first night there, they walked the Freedom Trail. Among the highlights on the trail were the Old North Church, the Paul Revere House, and the Old State House. They stopped to eat at the market at Faneuil Hall - the “Cradle of Freedom,” where Revolutionary-era meetings and protests took place.
Be sure to turn your clocks BACK one hour Saturday night.
Our FFA organization is attending the National FFA convention in Indianapolis this week. Here are some pictures from their educational tours during the first two days of the trip.
