Kaitlyn Crompton, one of our sophomore FFA members, was selected after a competitive application process to attend National FFA's NextGen Conference for Animal Systems in Denver, CO this upcoming Spring semester, Feb 28-Mar 3, 2023. The Next Gen Conference allows students to explore a specific pathway through informational sessions, panels and tours. Participants experience new and emerging ideas, trends, and products; cutting-edge technology; sustainability and more. In addition, they will delve into literacy and advocacy as well as diversity, equity and inclusion, all while exploring various careers in the pathway. If you see Kaitlyn around campus or our community, show her some love... this is a HUGE accomplishment!
