๐๐ฎ OUR FFA STUDENTS TAKE CENTER STAGE AT THE BOARD MEETING! ๐๐
A big round of applause for a talented group of seven La Vernia FFA students who shared an outstanding presentation with the La Vernia ISD Board of Trustees as part of their FFA Agricultural Issues Forum! ๐ค๐
These students brought an important agricultural topic to the table:
๐ Should major livestock shows impose stricter rules limiting professional involvement in junior livestock projects?
Through their presentation, they highlighted a real-world issue facing the agricultural industry while demonstrating their research, critical thinking, and public speaking skills!
๐ We love seeing our students confidently share their knowledge, engage in meaningful discussions, and showcase what they are learning beyond the classroom!
๐ Great job to these seven outstanding students! We are so proud of you! ๐ป

๐๐ It's National School Bus Safety Week! ๐๐
Our La Vernia ISD buses carry some very precious cargo every dayโour students! Keeping them safe is a responsibility we all share.
๐ฆ STOP Means STOP! When a school bus has its red lights flashing and stop arm extended, drivers must stop and remain stopped until it is safe and legal to proceed.
๐ Know the Rules! Whether you're traveling on a two-way road, a roadway with a center turn lane, or a divided highway, knowing when to stop can help prevent accidents and save lives.
๐ Stay Alert! Slow down in school zones, avoid distractions, and always watch for students entering or exiting buses.
โค๏ธ Thank You, Bus Drivers! A special shout out to our amazing La Vernia ISD transportation team for the care and dedication they show our students each day!
Let's work together to keep our Bears safe, one bus stop at a time! ๐ป
