FFA

What is FFA?
FFA is a dynamic youth organization within agricultural education that changes lives and prepares students for premier leadership, personal growth and career success. FFA was created in 1928 as Future Farmers of America; the name was changed in 1988 to the National FFA Organization to represent the growing diversity of agriculture. Today, almost half a million student members are engaged in a wide range of agricultural education activities, leading to over 300 career opportunities in the food, fiber and natural resources industry. Student success remains the primary mission of FFA. (Taken from the 2003-2004 Official FFA Manual)

Albion FFA chapter has been active for many years. Students attend state and national conventions, leadership workshops and more.

FFA students hold a yearly citrus sale for the community.

FFA has an active FFA Alumni Association. George McKenna DMV is the current president. The FFA Alumni helped purchase a milk machine which is very popular and used frequently by high school students and faculty.

Amanda Flansburg is the 2007-2008 FFA District Nine President. She succeeds Anna Metcalf, Kerri McKenna and Caton McKenna as the fourth consecutive District Nine President from Albion.

Anna Metcalf is the 2007 - 2008 New York State FFA President. She will work with 4,200+ members throughout New York State. This is the first time a student from Albion FFA chapter has been elected to this office.
