Chadron FFA Competes in 2nd Virtual Contest

 The Chadron FFA Chapter was represented well on Wednesday, January 13th, 2021 at WNCC (VIRTUAL) contest. Hopes were high for an in person event in Scottsbluff (where we routinely shine) but, it was not meant to be this time. However, a big congratulations goes to our members for stepping up and having the courage to compete anyway. Teams competed in welding, ag sales, floriculture and livestock management.  The welding team had four welds to create and take an online test. The welds were then shipped to WNCC for scoring.  The Ag Sales team had to administer an individual “zoom” sale call to a potential client and try selling a type of drone that best fits a given scenario and take an online test. Floriculture had two online tests that focused on horticulture concerns with the growing and marketing of flowers and ornamental plants, in addition to, usage in floral arrangement and design as well as plant identification. Students involved in the livestock management contest were able to work as a team but focused on multiple species (beef, horse, dairy, sheep, poultry-mgmt and evaluation, and swine). 

The FFA Chapter is rolling along with 3 of 4 teams qualifying and look forward to having more members qualify for state in the next two contests. (Submitted by Reporter Jalei Marcy)

No School for Students Jan. 22, Feb. 16 and Mar. 26th

The Nebraska Department of Education is allowing schools to give some needed student breaks due to CoVid this year.  Therefore, Chadron Public Schools is planning no school for students January 22, February 16, and March 26th.  

January 22nd is our big wrestling tournament that normally happens in the Physical Activity Center at Chadron State College.  This year we cannot use the PAC facility due to the college's CoVid protocols.  Therefore, we will host the tournament as scheduled on January 22nd using both the middle school and high school gyms and all parking facilities. 

In addition, February 16th will extend a scheduled weekend break for students and March 26th is the day of our annual Quiz Bowl at the Middle School, so this helps with capacity.
