🌎🌿 Learning to Leave No Trace! ♻️ Our Outdoor Recreation students spent time picking up trash around the Fayetteville campus while learning about environmental stewardship and the importance of taking care of the places we live, learn, and play! 🌱 Through hands-on learning, students are discovering how small actions can make a big difference in protecting our environment. We’re putting the Leave No Trace principles into practice by respecting nature, reducing our impact, and leaving our surroundings better than we found them! 💚 Great job, Rockets, for making a positive impact on our school and community!

Our Rockets will have the opportunity to showcase their chapter’s accomplishments through a presentation and interview, sharing the hard work, dedication, and impact that make Fayetteville-Perry FFA special. The competition takes place this week, with results announced Thursday! 🤞🏆 We are incredibly proud of our FFA members and advisors for representing Fayetteville-Perry at the national level.
