The Agricultural Issues team and senior creed speaker Jacqueline Rand are leaving for the FFA state competition in Huntsville at Sam Houston University Thursday. The team will compete Friday in the semifinals and Saturday if they qualify for the finals.

“I’m so excited to go to the FFA state competition with my amazing team,” sophomore Jaxson Buttram said. “This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that I am going to make the most of. I hope we do really well.”
