Sam Houston High FFA

Every year the Margaret Mayeux family awards FFA members with their own FFA blue corduroy jacket! To apply to win a jacket, a person must be an active FFA member and complete an application and essay prompt. This years essay prompt was “what does FFA mean to you and how would receiving an FFA jacket help you to continue being an active FFA member. Out of 88 applicants, 14 were selected, one of them being our very own Chloe Pham. We are so proud of her and cannot wait to see where her blue jacket takes her. Congratulations, Chloe!

Huge thank you to our FFA State Area III Vice President, Baileigh Conner, for presenting Chloe with her jacket!

Today, we brought 46 students to compete in the Area III FFA Career Development Events Competitions at McNeese. We had teams competing in Meats Evaluation, Veterinary Science, Milk Quality, Nursery and Landscape, Poultry Judging, and Electricity. These students fought hard against the harsh winds and cold temperatures and some really great competitors. We placed top 10 in each contest. Ulysses Mairena placed 3rd and qualified for the state contest. We are extremely proud of all the hard work they have put into studying their contests this season. The future is bright for these students! Keep striving for success!
