Rosalie Hunsinger, from the National FFA has ask me to serve on a new SAE and Degree committee and has ask me to forward the following information to everyone in Georgia about the new degree requirements beginning in 2011. The information is listed below, the major change appears to be community service activity hours.
Thanks,
Gary Minyard
American Degree Requirement Change – Effective 2011 application process:
A change in the American Degree requirements will be implemented with the 2011 application process.
Start preparing your students now. The community service hours’ requirement will change at the Chapter, State and National level.
Chapter FFA Degree the following requirement:
Have participated in at least 10 hours of community service activities. These hours are in addition to and cannot be duplicated as paid or unpaid SAE hours.
State FFA Degree the following requirement:
Have participated in at least 25 hours within at least two different community service activities.
( NOTE: 15 more than Chapter Degree). These hours are in addition to and cannot be duplicated as paid or unpaid SAE hours
·American FFA Degree the following requirements:
- Have a record of outstanding leadership activities;
- Have participated in at least 50 hours in at least three different community
service activities (25 more than State Degree). These hours are in addition to and cannot be
duplicated as paid or unpaid SAE hours; and
- Have achieved a high school scholastic record of “C” or better, as certified by the principal
or superintendent.
These hours may be cumulative. Example:
- 10 hours required for Chapter Degree,
- 15 more hours are required for the State Degree
- 25 more hours are required for the American Degree, for a total of 50 hours.
These hours may NOT be duplicated for Directed Lab (unpaid hours).
Updates for the 2012 revision process will also follow. If you have any questions, please let me know.
Thank you!
