Southside ISD students in the Future Farmers of America (FFA) program perform well at school and at home. They arrive at school early to care for their animals and then stay late to feed, water, and clean up.
On January 8, 2022 19 out of 27 students placed and made it into the Auction of Champions. Southside High School senior Kyara Vela won for Grand Champion Goat Doe. Southside High School’s Amber Robles received a $500 Bexar County Junior Livestock Show Scholarship and received two 1st Place ribbons. Hilda Dominguez received the Reserve Grand Champion American Heifer, and Nikko Garcia received 1st Place, as well.
Congratulations to all student exhibitors and their parents for their hard work and dedication as Southside ISD FFA prepares for the Majors.
