Wynford FFA & Agriculture Education — Building on Our Strong Agricultural Heritage:
❖ Every junior high student is required to take an agricultural education class.
❖ Wynford students routinely rank among the top five in Ohio in the soils competition and have been invited to the National Land and Range Judging Competition in four of the last six years.
❖ Students compete in more than 10 contests throughout the year, with most advancing to the state level.
❖ Wynford had eight State FFA Degree recipients last year at the Ohio State FFA Convention.
❖ Each year, FFA partners with the FCS Department to host Harvest Day, teaching our kindergarten students about the harvest.
❖ During FFA Week, Wynford hosts an annual Farmers and Supporters Luncheon to recognize and celebrate those who support agricultural education and FFA.
❖ Three Wynford alumni will receive their American FFA Degrees this fall at the National FFA Convention.
❖ Erin Wolfe was a state finalist in public speaking, and Marty Schuster was a state proficiency finalist.
❖ The Rising Sun Endowment Fund has more than $100,000 and four $1,500 scholarships were given through the fund last year.
❖ Wynford FFA donates to a dozen educational and charitable organizations throughout the year.
❖ Next summer, 12 students will travel to Belgium and the Netherlands on a nine-day agricultural trip while earning three college credits.
