Seaman High School FFA gives district second-grade students first look at agriculture


TOPEKA, Kan. (WIBW) – The Seaman High School FFA program gave district second-grade students a first look at agriculture on Friday, April 10 at the North Topeka Saddle Club.

The students participated in seven stations throughout the morning that involved learning about the farm animals, the food we eat, and the clothes we wear.

The day began with introductions and concluded with a whole group presentation on a mobile dairy classroom.

“It’s incredibly important to have students involved in agriculture sciences because this is the industry that feeds and clothes us so we put on this day for the second graders because we want them to be exposed to it at a young age,” said Madison Koenen, FFA Advisor and Agriculture Teacher at Seaman High School.

“I think it’s important that we get them out to a day on the farm because these are really, truly just experiences that can’t be taught in the classroom,” said Maleia Doud, FFA president and student at Seaman High School.

Students from Elmont, Northern Hills and North Fairview Elementary Schools participated in the interactive program.
