On Tuesday, May 9, eight Tuscumbia FFA researchers competed at the Missouri Agriscience Fair in Memorial Union on the campus of the University of Missouri - Columbia. Five students took first in their category/division and three students took second place in their category/division. The five first place winners are now semifinalists in the National Agriscience Fair. They will send in their research papers and a panel of judges will select the top ten projects across the nation in each category/division. These students will then compete in the National Agriscience Fair next fall.

The results were as follows:

Reagan Ahart - 1st place Plant Sciences/Division 3

Maddie Blankenship - 1st place in Social Sciences/Division 3

Addie Farnham - 2nd place in Food Systems/Division 5

Cally Rains - 1st place in Food Systems/Division 3

Colin Stokes - 1st place in Environmental Services/Division 3

Jonah Visser - 2nd Place Environmental Systems/Division 5

Leila Wright - 2nd place in Environmental Systems/Division 3.

As part of our planning process for next year, we want to know how we're doing and what we can improve upon. Whether you are a parent/caregiver or a community member, we would appreciate it if you would take a few minutes to take this survey. We will use it as we continue to set goals to better meet the needs of our students, families, and community. Please complete it by the end of the day on Friday, May 12. We appreciate your time and your input!
