The freshman draft is a brand new idea thought of by the Righetti FFA officer team. Our advisors have chosen 50 freshmen who have shown leadership qualities and potential for future success in the FFA. It will act as a buddy system for the select freshmen who have stood out so far in this school year. The freshman who have been selected will be competing against each other with a point system and the group with the most points will be rewarded at the Annual FFA  Awards Banquet this May. This is a great way to get students involved who have the potential for success.
