🌟 28 Blue Jackets & A Big Milestone! 🌟
Brandywine Heights Area School District is thrilled to share some exciting FFA news! At the Pennsylvania FFA Mid-Winter Convention, 28 of our students proudly received their iconic blue jackets. 💙 These jackets symbolize hard work, dedication, and a bright future in agriculture—and they were made possible thanks to the generosity of our amazing community sponsors!
But that’s not all! 🎉 We’re also proud to announce that Brandywine Heights FFA was 1 of just 6 chapters across the state to receive its official charter during the convention. While some of our students couldn’t attend due to the weather, we’ll make sure to recognize their incredible achievements at a later date.
📸 Stay tuned for more updates from our FFA chapter and agricultural program—this is just the beginning of something great! 🌾
