🥇UNITED FFA OFFICER BOOKS ALL EARN GOLD RATING!!! 🥇
Over the past year, the United FFA officers team have worked diligently to complete the 3 National FFA Officer book requirements. These are extremely in-depth record books that are evaluated based on a stringent rubric. The records within the books cover an entire year of the United FFA chapter's records, achievements, financials, meeting minutes, and more!
Though the books are linked to the officers who hold the respective offices, these GOLD RATINGS have been a huge team effort, and we could not be more proud of this team's achievements!
