February 18th-21st, the Paulding FFA Chapter celebrated National FFA Week by having
many events throughout the district. During this week, every day was a dress-up day for high
school and this year we included the elementary schools and the middle school, which was a
huge success. When students entered the building on Tuesday there was an FFA emblem
scavenger hunt in all the buildings and once a student found an emblem they turned it in for a
candy prize! It was so fun to see the students in all grades finding hidden emblems all week.
Tuesday was sleepy farmer, where students got to wear their pajamas with boots. Paulding FFA held their 2nd annual Farmer Appreciation breakfast to give back to the community and all the farmers for all of their support. The FFA officers also made a quiz to educate the entire high
school about agriculture in Paulding County. The students took the quiz and once they got
100% they were given a cookie donated by Ag Credit. On Wednesday, the dress-up day was
redneck/Carhartt day. We also had State FFA Officer Ryan Bowsher do some awesome team-
building activities with all the ag classes. Thursday was FFA shirt day where the chapter hosted
our annual staff appreciation lunch. Friday’s dress-up day was cowboys on the beach. The HS
staff enjoyed a coffee bar and scones to thank them for their support of our FFA chapter. Also
on Friday, the Paulding FFA hosted its annual Country Olympics with the entire high school in
attendance. The students competed in a wide variety of games and competitions with their
teams. These games consisted of balloon stomp, pie eating contest, tug of war, seed spitting,
cattle roping, musical chairs, and a milking contest. We also added sack races and a human
wheelbarrow race. Luke Beckman and Blake Rhonehouse were the cornhole champions for
2025 and claimed their prize of $50 cash at the end of the games. The students had an
enjoyable day at the Country Olympics and are very excited for next year.

We want to give a big thanks to everyone for their support and dedication to the Paulding FFA Chapter!
