Celebrating National FFA Week

It’s National FFA Week.

It’s an annual week-long celebration highlighting the impact of school-based agricultural education and the Future Farmers of America, or FFA.

June Strupp is an Agricultural Sciences Teacher at Hartford Union High School. She’s in her final year, before she retires. 

"This is my eleventh year at Hartford. I have to say the FFA is what has kept me teaching this long. I love the kids, I love the activities and to see their growth from their freshman year to their senior year is amazing. I'm really going to miss them."

All the best in retirement, and congratulations to June Strupp. She will be missed.

June worked in the Horicon School District for 20 years, and has enjoyed her time in Hartford.

Dress-up days are being held this week. Today students are encouraged to dress in hunter, camouflage and denim. By dressing up, they will earn FFA Bucks to cash in for ice cream on Friday.
