Hillsboro FFA Chapter 

On May 1, a record-breaking 13 members of the Hillsboro Great Oaks FFA chapter received their state degrees at the Ohio State FFA Convention. 

Only 2 percent of FFA members earn their state degree. To receive this coveted award, members must participate in community service, earn $2,500 through their Supervised Agricultural Experience (SAE) project, participate in multiple FFA activities, and have a GPA of at least 3.0 as some of the requirements. 

Congratulations to these students.
