Hardin-Jefferson High School

The Hardin-Jefferson FFA envisions a future in which all agricultural education students will discover their passion in life and build on that insight to chart the course for their education, career and personal future.  Agricultural Education prepares students for successful careers and a lifetime of informed choices in the global agriculture, food, fiber and natural resources systems.

Mission: FFA makes a positive difference in the lives of students by developing their potential for premier leadership, personal growth, and career success through agricultural education.

Motto: Learning to do, Doing to learn, Earning to live, Living to serve.

3-Part System: FFA is not extracurricular! The program is part of a three-part model of education that consists of classroom instruction, supervised agricultural experiences, and the FFA. Classroom agricultural education is applied to hands-on learning opportunities called supervised agricultural experiences (SAEs). SAEs include activities such as starting a business, working for an established company, or working in production agriculture. The FFA provides members the opportunity for leadership experience and competitions, scholarships, and personal opportunities for involvement
