ClassAg Fair FFAAg Art Show: If you have an Ag Communications SAE, Ag Art Show is the perfect time to exhibit your work for the year. Jeremy Blain is the chair this year and he can field any questions you have. Please sign up on our classroom door and bring your art as soon as possible. Viewing will be on Wednesday May 31st at 5:30-5:50 pm before Ag Awards Night. Enter your photos to be selected for the Ag Calendar for next year! Awards Night: Awards are split into two different events, in class awards for things like committees, trips and lab assistance and Ag Awards Night for bigger activities such as CDE's, scholarships and proficiency awards. If your name was in the email that was sent home, you should be attending awards night. See Mrs. Roselli for tickets (free). Awards night is on Wednesday May 31st at 6:00 pm in the Ag Community Room. Winners of scholarships and the essay competitions will also be announced this night. ENR: We took two seasoned team members this year and two new competitors to the Environmental/Natural Resources Career Development Event. The team placed 6th in the state at UConn. When we get our scores back we will assess what we need to study up on for next year. Envirothon: This was our first year competing in the Envirothon competition. We learned that we can take 10 students next year and that the entire competition is a team event. If you are interested in participating in the event, make it a point to attend the workshops hosted by Envirothon throughout the year as all of the content at the contest is based on the workshops. The team presentation topic for next year is rangeland management. For more information check out the CT Envirothon website. The scores are also posted on their website. SAEQuarter 4 SAE Grades: SAE for the year ends on 5/31. Be sure to have all of your hours done by then and be prepared to complete your SAE photos, hours and journal entries on the next rainy day.
SAE Visits and Trips: I will be doing SAE visits and trips on the dates listed below. Please speak with your parents and determine which days you are available for an SAE visit. We will be booking these in class soon. I still need to do more planning for the SAE trips. More info to come.
SAE Paperwork: All SAE paperwork should have been turned in by now. Most of the Juniors still need to turn in their paperwork. Animal's Vacation Homes: If you are interested in taking any of the animals home over summer break, please let me know via email.

FFAFFA Meeting: The next FFA meeting is on Tuesday May 16th. ENR/Envirothon- Permission slips are posted on the board in the classroom. Please let me know when you plan on meeting next week. Right now, I plan on seeing everyone, every day after school. If you cannot attend, please let me know. Poster for ENR must be done by the end of the meeting on Tuesday! #WhatTheJacketHasDoneForMe Campaign: Recently there has been some "blue bashing" where people are either speaking poorly of FFA or don't fully understand what FFA can do for them. I have decided to start a "What The Jacket Has Done For Me" campaign. Nick will be editing the video clips together. If you would like to participate in this social media campaign, please send me either a video clip (vlog style) or a brief write up letting others know what FFA has done for you. FFA has provided me with endless opportunities in life and I would not be teaching Ag if I didn't wear the blue jacket. Don't miss out on the incredible opportunities it has for you.
