Each year Ms. Shadix’ Principles of Agriculture students learn the importance of “FFA Official Dress” and the history and traditions behind the iconic blue corduroy jacket in the official FFA colors; National Blue and Corn Gold.
While many things have changed and evolved over the 95 years since the FFA Organization began, the FFA jacket is something that has only ever changed slightly because of its traditional roots and what it represents.
Students are tasked with learning all of the required pieces of official dress and will soon wear these items at various contests, conventions and events!
