The Harrison Middle School FBLA Nationals team is headed home from California today. We are so proud of our students because they placed Nationally! 6th place in the nation in Community Service Presentation - Ella Davidson 8th place in the nation in Annual Chapter Activities - Paysley Ruff, Leighann Cope, and Brynlee King These students did a wonderful job. It is very difficult to place Nationally and for them to place top 8 their first year, is a very big deal.

Stephanie Benton, the 2024 Arkansas Ag in the Classroom award recipient, and Becca Jackson, the 2025 NAITCO scholarship recipient, recently presented at the National Ag in the Classroom Conference in Minneapolis, MN. Educators from across the country attended their session, where they introduced their original unit, Seeds of Change. Participants not only walked away with fresh ideas for the classroom, but also enjoyed local Arkansas products as door prizes—and even learned how to “Call the Hogs.” Special thanks to Cavender’s for their signature seasoning and to Farmer Jack for his farm-raised beef sticks. Stephanie and Becca were honored to represent their state and share their passion for agricultural education with fellow educators from around the nation.
