Future Plans

Howdy! I'm happy to announce that thanks to some helpful folks within the Animal Science department at Texas A&M University I have been able to create a schedule for next year that will allow me to continue to present Ag After School for the 2015-2016 school year! While I am excited that the program has the potential to continue, we (the entire group of students here with the Allen FFA) still need the continued support of Allen ISD faculty and parents to get it on your school's calendar. I hope that we will be visiting your school soon, and teaching your kids essential facts about the growing world that they live in!

Spreading the Word

Recently Allen High School's student magazine published a short article about my, Brittney Borserine's, FLS Project Ag After School.

Each time our Ag Program and the FFA have the opportunity to break into any forum of public media, we get one step closer to truly informing the urban public about what the agricultural industry is all about.

Ford Scholar Banquet

Last Thursday, January 8, the Texas FFA Ford Leadership Scholars had our banquet to celebrate the completion of our time as active scholars. Prior to the dinner portion of our banquet the 9 scholars presented their projects to those who aided in their training. It was my pleasure to share with the industry leaders present about Ag After School. I'm so grateful for the opportunities that have presented themselves because of this program and the kids I got to teach.
