Freshmen and first year Sophomore FFA students attended the Greenhand Convention last week with other chapters from Northern Nevada. The first year FFA students learned about the opportunities available through FFA and made new friends! Chapter Officers also attended COLT (Chapter Officer Leadership Training). At COLT the newly elected chapter officers developed personal growth plans, worked on speech writing and delivery as well as developed personal management skills. Excited to see Oasis FFA going places, Go Bighorns!

Second graders experimented with chocolate. They were given pieces of chocolate and had to see if they could make it into the three states of matter: solid, liquid, or gas. Unfortunately... no chocolate gas was discovered. #stem #yummyscience #poweroflearning
