Last Friday was the second day of the National FFA Convention. The day's Opening Ceremonies started with key note speaker, Courtenay Dehoff, who talked about striving for great things and adapting when plans change. After that, students were able to explore the agriscience fair posters and Hall of States, learning about agriculture around the country.
Then, students attended the second general session where #WatertownWay's very own Brandon Boyd and Ethan Johnson took 2nd place overall in their division for the Agriscience Fair! π₯
It was a very exciting day and a great achievement for the Watertown FFA!

It's an exciting time for The V Formation, Endeavor's esports team, as they had their first practice last week!
Our esports team is working to join the Wisconsin High School Esports Association to compete against other state teams, as well as the High School Esports League to be able to compete against teams across the nation within the next year.
Coach Mr. Harms will be holding a seminar during the second trimester for any of our Endeavor students who want to learn STEM and 21st Century skills through esports. The team hopes to start scrimmages this spring!
