Liberty County High School’s FFA Chapter was recently named a 2-Star Chapter by the National FFA Organization. The National Chapter Award program recognizes outstanding FFA chapters from throughout the country that actively implement the mission and strategies of the organization. These chapters improve chapter operations using the National Quality FFA Chapter Standards and a Program of Activities that emphasizes growing leaders, building communities, and strengthening agriculture. Chapters are rewarded for providing educational experiences for the entire membership.

Star-rated FFA chapters receive honors made possible by corporate sponsor John Deere.

“At John Deere, we believe that FFA will grow the next generation of leaders capable of changing the world for the better,” Aaron Wetzel, vice president of production systems at John Deere, said. “Star chapters help inspire these vital leaders through their exceptional commitment to FFA’s mission, which they bring to life through inspiring agricultural education, rich career exploration, and meaningful community service.”

The Liberty County High School FFA chapter officers worked diligently to ensure their chapter excelled in areas of student, chapter, and community development. The FFA chapter received guidance from their advisor, Mrs. Jeci Bohannon, and support from their principal, Mrs. Debra B. Frazier, and CTAE Director Mrs. Sonja Duncan. Without this strong support system, the FFA chapter would not have been able to reach these high standards.

“We are very proud of the accomplishments of our scholars. They take pride in representing Liberty County High School as it is evident in their performance,” Mrs. Frazier said. “These model scholars continually display leadership qualities in our school and community. We extend a huge congratulations for their dedication and commitment.”
