On April 7, the Hillsboro FFA Chapter hosted their annual awards ceremony at the high school. The Hillsboro FFA officers organized the ceremony and awarded all of the members in the chapter for their hard work and dedication throughout the year.
Rhett Holland, Hannah Holland’s father, also spoke to all of the members and parents about the extreme impact FFA has on its members and especially his daughters and family.
The chapter officers recognized every freshman, sophomore, junior and senior for all of their involvement and favorite activities throughout the year. Many members received awards for competing in different Career Development Events (CDEs), selling fruit for the annual fruit sale and selling strawberries for our strawberry sale. Multiple members were awarded for proficiency awards based upon their Supervised Agricultural Experience (SAE) project. We also recognized our members who received their State and American Degrees this year.
Concluding the ceremony, the 2024-25 Hillsboro FFA chapter officers were installed for the upcoming year.
Congratulations to all of the Hillsboro FFA members and their families for their time and dedication to the Hillsboro FFA.
