The Taylorville FFA Chapter has been a proud and storied chapter for a very long time. With a tradition of success and hard work, that torch continues to be passed down from generation to generation. Behind all of the personal and chapter achievements, is a dedicated group of teachers and sponsors and generous community, propelling these students to new heights. During National FFA Week, the Taylorville FFA Chapter had a lot to share with fellow students and staff, from cookouts to activities. Jacob McWard, Taylorville FFA Co-President and Ryker Beckmier, one of five Vice Presidents of the Junior Class, tell all about the days planned.

Taking home more accolades also made its way into the busy week. McWard and Beckmier share about the success had by the chapter.

Both Beckmier and McWard describe the books they have worked diligently on and were awarded for.

The cherry on top for the massive undertaking these students have taken on? Beckmier says some members of the Taylorville FFA Chapter are about to embark on a trip of a lifetime.
