FFA and Cider
Did you know that we have 180 students that participate in Ag Class/FFA? The Madison-Plains Chapter is currently ranked as the 9th largest in the State of Ohio!  

The FFA (formerly Future Farmers of America) is a national organization dedicated to preparing members for leadership and careers in the science, business and technology of agriculture. Local, state and national activities and award programs provide opportunities to apply knowledge and skills acquired through agriculture education. The Ohio FFA Association has 25,439 members in 312 chapters throughout Ohio. Pretty impressive that we are the 9th largest!

There are a lot of ways to support the FFA and we will be introducing them throughout the year as they get closer. However, starting September 30, the FFA will begin the Laurelville Cider Sale. The sale will run through October 10, and will be delivered on October 23. Please see any FFA member to place your order or call the High School office at 740.490.0775 and they will get you in touch with someone.

Funds raised by the Cider sale as well as the Fruit Sale are used to pay for student participation in Career Development Events (Contests), reduce student costs for Camps and Trips (Greenhand Camp, Summer FFA Camp, State FFA Convention and National FFA Convention) as well as cover the cost for our Annual FFA Banquet.
