The Slaton High School Agricultural Sciences and FFA Program empowers students to explore a wide range of opportunities within agriculture, leadership, and industry-related competitions. Through hands-on learning and active involvement in the FFA, students develop practical skills, gain valuable experience, and build confidence in areas such as animal science, plant science, agricultural mechanics, and more. The program encourages personal growth, career readiness, and leadership development, all while fostering a strong sense of community and pride in the agricultural industry.
Students builds self-confidence and self-esteem while promoting Agriculture.
