Galatia FFA members attended the 97th National FFA Convention in Indianapolis, Indiana. Members experienced a convention session and a huge career show where they were able to talk to colleges, universities, and major employers in the agriculture industry. They also enjoyed talking with the approximately 68,000 other FFA members in attendance making new connections.
There will be no concessions at tonight's junior high girls basketball game. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Tomorrow (Friday, October 25) a crew will be at the JH/HS to stripe the new parking lot. Bus and drop off/pick up traffic will redirect in the same way it was at the beginning of the school year (enter at the ball fields, go around behind the school, drop off/pick up on north side of the gravel lot on JH side). All student drivers will park across the street or at the ball fields. All staff members will park in the north gravel parking lot. Thank you.
