🌾💙 West Carroll FFA Members Attend National FFA Convention & Expo! 💙🌾

West Carroll FFA students recently traveled to Indianapolis, Indiana, for the National FFA Convention and Expo, where they spent several days last week learning about leadership, agriculture, and career opportunities.

Students experienced hands-on learning at honey production, toured dairy and hog farms, witnessed a calf being born, and connected with FFA members and recruiters from across the country. 🐝🐄🐷

Senior Joy Bryant shared, “I was excited to talk with recruiters from dozens of universities from across the United States.”

We’re proud of our FFA students for representing West Carroll with excellence and continuing to grow as future leaders in agriculture! 🦅

If our kindergarteners had their way, Halloween would be full of superhero teachers, fairy wings, and lots of giggles! 🎃🖍️

Check out what our youngest learners at West Carroll Primary dreamed up for their teachers’ costumes.

Fresh from the farm to your lunch tray! 🌱🥗

🧺🌱🥗Today’s salad bar features lettuce grown and harvested by our West Carroll Agriculture students.

After weeks of hard work in the greenhouse, the students proudly delivered their crop to the cafeteria, bringing a true farm-to-table experience to our school lunch program.

We love seeing hands-on learning come full circle and appreciate the collaboration between our Ag program and cafeteria staff for making it happen!

🎃 Another Great Boo Bash at West Carroll 🎃
This year’s Community Boo Bash was one for the books! Families from across the district packed the West Carroll High School parking lot for an evening full of games, food, costumes, and community connection.

From the haunted classroom to pumpkin voting and a costume contest for all ages, the night was a perfect blend of school spirit and small-town tradition. With lines forming an hour before the gates opened, it’s clear our War Eagle family shows up in full force!

Thank you to every student, staff member, volunteer, and community partner who made the 2025 Boo Bash a spooktacular success. We’re already counting down to next year!
