Northview’s FFA To Be Honored As One Of America’s Best Chapters
August 15, 2014
The Northview High School FFA chapter will once again receive one of the highest national honors presented by the National FFA.
Northview’s FFA will receive the Three Star Chapter award on live national television during the National FFA Convention & Expo this fall in Louisville, KY. The program recognizes outstanding FFA chapters from throughout the county that successfully complete an annual set of required activities that encourage members to grow individually, work as a team and serve others in their community.
In addition to the national honors, the Northview High FFA chapter was recently honored for having the top Fresh From Florida Food Advocacy Program, formerly known as the Food for America Program, in the entire state. The chapter has received top state award numerous times.
During the FFA state convention this summer, the Northview FFA was also selected for the Florida’s Premier FFA Chapters award. The Premier Chapter Award was initiated to recognize superior achievement by chapters in agricultural education and the FFA. To be eligible for this award, a chapter must be proficient in several areas, which include alumni and community partnerships, financial planning, and public relations, along with recruitment and other FFA activities.
