This past week, students in Mr. Justin Stone's Principles of Agriculture class attempted to "buzz in first" when they competed in "FFA Jeopardy." Mr. Stone created the game to help students review FFA history for an upcoming exam. Students rotated at the buzzers, while another student did their best Alex Trebek impression for each round. Good luck to everyone on their exam!!
