129 students, 12 contests, 34 judges, 8 schools!

The FFA hosted a public speaking competition at Granville Jr/Sr High and everyone got involved.

34 staff members stayed late to help provide judging - from the district office, teachers, kitchen, guidance and more. 

Students from area schools including Granville, Cambridge, Greenwich and more traveled the halls to present their version of the the FFA Creed.

Each student answered five questions from the judges about their views on the creed, their own personal examples and what it meant to them and their community involvement.

Granville was proud to host and we are proud and appreciative of our staff for pitching in and volunteering their time to judge. Go Horde!
