Degree check results are in, and Yorktown FFA has plenty to celebrate! After an incredible year, we are excited to continue building on the success and growth our chapter has experienced over the last two years.
We are proud to announce that six Yorktown FFA members have earned the Lone Star FFA Degree, the highest degree awarded at the state level. These students will be recognized in just a few weeks in Fort Worth.
Congratulations to our Lone Star Degree recipients:
• Brock Puente
• Zoe Irvin
• Kendall Sievers

We are also excited to announce that four Yorktown FFA members have earned the American FFA Degree, the highest honor bestowed by the National FFA Organization. Only about 1% of FFA members nationwide achieve this distinction. Prior to this year, Yorktown FFA had only three American Degree recipients in chapter history. With this year’s class, we are proud to add four more names to that prestigious list.
Congratulations to our American FFA Degree recipients:
• Laynie Boyd
• Layne Geffert
• Rylan Rau
• Sydnie Kruger
