Piedmont Academy’s FFA Career Development Events at Ft. Valley State University

Recently, Piedmont Academy’s FFA competed in three different Career Development Events at Ft. Valley State University.  The first competition was Environmental and Natural Resources which involves GPS coordinates, tree identification, wildlife identification, and the high school team had a group problem to solve.  At the same time, the Farm Business Management team was competing by taking a written test that involved economics and management in farming operations.  While these students were working hard, one other was taking a quiz over the history and basics of the FFA organization by taking the FFA Quiz.  The teams represented Piedmont Academy very well.   High individual scores included Chris Coogler placed 9th, Preston Tyler placed 11th, and Eli Waits placed 6th. The Jr ENR team placed 3rd and high school Farm Business Management placed 5th
