AHS FFA receives national ranking
The national FFA organization recently selected the Allen FFA chapter from a pool of 660 candidates nationwide as a three-star winner in the National FFA Chapter Award Program.
The award program is sponsored by John Deere as a special project of the National FFA Foundation. The National FFA chapter award program recognizes FFA chapters for developing and conducting a detailed program of activities. Every year, FFA chapters are recognized as having earned a one-, two- or three-star rating on their application. The three-star rating is the highest level of accomplishment an FFA chapter may achieve. On Oct. 22, the Allen FFA was recognized at the Allen ISD board meeting.
