St. Regis students competed at the Montana State FFA Convention in Bozeman on April 3 through April 6. Member Emma Hill was a finalist in the FFA’s Most Inspirational Contest, where she wrote an essay about inspiring others to become members. Although no students placed in the top ten, they improved their scores from previous FFA attempts. Students competed in Livestock Evaluation and Farm Agribusiness Management at the convention. Chapter members also acted as a voting delegate for changes to the State FFA Constitution, volunteered at the Salvation Army, student success workshops and nightly open sessions. Another FFA Convention will be held on May 6-7 in Great Falls where members will compete in Agriculture Communications, Vet Science, Food Science, Horse Evaluation and Employment Skills.
