Three Forks School District

More amazing Middle School Projects! They just keep on cooking!

It is with great pleasure to announce that Rylee Smith and Colton Schmitt have earned their Montana State FFA Degrees!

The State FFA Degree is the highest degree that a state can bestow upon its members. To earn this degree, members must achieve their Greenhand and Chapter FFA Degrees, be active members for at least two years, and meet requirements in agricultural education, Supervised Agricultural Experience (SAE), leadership, community service, and scholastic achievement. The Montana FFA Association recognizes its top members with this prestigious degree, which demonstrates the commitment and accomplishments of FFA members in their supervised agricultural experiences.

Rylee and Colton will receive this honor at the 2026 Montana FFA State Convention.

Congratulations to these two amazing Three Forks FFA Seniors! We are so proud of you!
