FFA Week kept our students busy. One of the highlights of the week is always Food for America. FFA Members teach our younger students about a plethora of ag topics. The stations this year included ag issues, ag mechanics, entomology, floriculture, nursery and landscape, poultry, soils, forestry, knowledge, food science, livestock, and how to conduct a meeting. An album of photos from Food for America 2023 is on the Clarence Cannon Elementary Facebook Page.
