Did you eat something today? Did you put clothes on before you left the house? If you did either of these things, you should thank a farmer! It's no secret that agriculture is one of the top job sectors in South Dakota, and the Sioux Falls School District is proud to be preparing students for a future in the industry!

The Future Farmers of America (FFA) program has been expanding in the District over the last few years. Kimmie Martin, who teaches agriculture at CTE, started the program and has been helping students get involved with agriculture at all kinds of different levels. Her passion for agriculture inspires students, and that inspiration is sure to help cultivate the next generation of leaders in one of South Dakota's number one industries.
