    Way to Go,TATE AND NORTHVIEW FFA..I was amazed at all the preparations and leadership skills that are taught and utilized in the FUTURE FARMERS OF AMERICA…speaking AND debating skills,organizational skills, logical thinking and writing skills, division of labor skills…just to name a few..

    ALL THESE SKILLS WILL HELP THE INDIVIDUAL STUDEN NO MATTER WHAT PROFESSION THEY CHOOSE AND WILL DIRECTLY EFFECT THE SUCCESS AND PROMOTION OF AMERICA.
