Agriculture Education

Alumni are invited to the
Cloister FFA
50th Anniversary Reunion

Agriculture is our nation's largest employer and Lancaster County's largest industry. Its future depends on having the best and brightest young people become leaders in science, production, international marketing, genetics, engineering, food science, computers, horticulture, food science, biotechnology, tissue culture, veterinary science and much more. There are more than 200 rewarding and challenging agriculture careers - promising jobs that offer opportunity for financial gain as well as personal growth and satisfaction.

Students enrolled in agriculture courses have the opportunity to join the FFA as an extracurricular activity. Through the FFA students learn by doing, develop leadership skills, experience personal growth, and explore career goals. Possible accomplishments are only limited by the energy that is put into the program. Students in FFA have the opportunity to compete in various contests at the local, state, and national levels and to travel and meet new people.

All students will be required to have safety glasses for shop classes. All agriculture education courses are considered electives.
