Congratulations to our FFA students and FFA Advisors Erica Baier and Josh Divoky who attended the Iowa FFA State Convention April 10-12 at Iowa State University. Prairie had 32 FFA members who successfully competed against 18,000+ FFA members state-wide.

“To see this kind of success in year two of a program is unheard of,” said FFA Advisor Erica Baier. “Our goal is to do the best we can and our students truly embody that. Seeing their hard work pay off with a supportive community standing behind them is unbelievably rewarding.”
