Happy Fall FFA Week!!!
This week, the Holton FFA joins chapters around the nation in celebrating National FFA Convention and Fall FFA week. We will showcase the impacts of agriculture in our lives and the contributions of FFA members in their schools and communities. We have a challenge for all our students!
During this week, we are working with teachers in the middle and high school to have every 6th through 12th grader complete a version of this Ag Assessment. This activity alone has the potential for every student in USD 336 (6-12) to take a few moments to think about Agriculture and how it impacts our lives. We believe that is a very exciting thing to happen in our community this week.
PLEASE put your full first and last name on the test so we know who to recognize!
Once you start, the test will auto submit after 18 minutes. Also another hint, you might want to have a calculator or scratch paper ready for a couple of them. We hope you have fun with it, but some of them should make you think. And as a reminder, the opportunity to take the test will close at the end of school Monday, November 2nd, 2020.
Best of luck on the assessment. We will be providing recognition for all of those that "meet standards", "exceed standards", and especially those who reach that "exemplary" level. We do promise NOT to publish a list of those on "academic warning", or "approaching standards" although Mr. Bartel has threatened to develop a remediation agriculture class if necessary. :-)
All joking aside, thanks for challenging yourself to try this test. We will crunch the numbers and do tabulation at that time. Everyone that "MEATS STANDARDS" :-)will receive an FFA Meat stick later in the month and be in the running for some other goodies from the chapter. Most importantly, thanks for everything you do to support the young men and women of the Holton FFA! Good luck to you for the rest of the fall!
Sincerely,
Holton FFA Leadership Team

Below you will find a link to the 2020 Agriculture Assessment. PLEASE CLICK ON YOUR GRADE BELOW TO TAKE THE ASSESSMENT. The secret word for students is the year you graduate. Therefore, seniors would enter 2021 for the secret word.
One of our goals this week is to have as many people as possible challenge themselves with this quiz and spend a little bit of time thinking about the overall impact of agriculture in their lives. And YES, you will get to see the correct answers with explanations once you submit it!
