FFA Highlight

By Roger Rodriguez and Connor Coats

FFA is an organization at Roswell High focused on leadership, agriculture, and safety.

We interviewed the advisors, president and treasurer. Some of the things they are looking forward to are Judging and NMLC. So you may wonder what Judging is, to Tatum Johnson, “judging is a season of leadership, growing, and learning new skills”. Some judging categories they will be doing this year are AG Mechanics, Homesite, Livestock, Floriculture, Wildlife, and Dairy.

The next topic we talked about is NMLC. NMLC is a two-day event where FFA members from all over NM get together in Las Cruces to learn about basic skills and leadership. Johnson said “ I did go my freshman year in Albuquerque and now it is in Las Cruces and it will be a little different but still a good experience.” She is looking forward to it as it is her Senior year. FFA is a great place to learn about leadership and learn about yourself as a person. You also make new friends and get a lifetime of experience.

RHS Proudest Moments

By Mariyah G, Alicia G. and An S.

One of the proudest moments for RHS this year is the improvements made to our classrooms. Some of that spending was in CTE programs like our motor, welding, wood shops and in our culinary arts program. Other improvements inlcude Promethean Boards in every classroom, a new sound system in the gynmasium and improvements to our safety systems.

There are other achievements like our Credit Recovery system that has proved to be successful in the past and previous state titles for our sports teams. We can't wait to see the rest of the achievements we have in the 2022- 2023 year.
