🐾 Bearcat Ambassadors Join Community Task Force 🐾

These ambassadors, representing each grade level, shared valuable student insight as the group worked to strengthen communication and collaboration between Decatur County Schools and our community.
We’re proud of these Bearcats for stepping up, sharing their voices, and helping build a stronger connection between our schools and the people we serve.

🚜Did you know that only 2% of Americans provide the food, fuel, and fiber to feed and cloth our nation?
🌾Because of that statistic, we all must be positive supporters of the agriculture industry- whether you are a producer, rancher, or supporter, your impact is vital to the industry that gives us so much.
🔵Yesterday, Bainbridge FFA Officers, Elizabeth Adams, Preston Lynn, Kevin Ray, and Tucker Surratt were honored to help welcome farmers, ranchers, agricultural supporters, and community members at the 24th Annual Ag Appreciation Luncheon.
🌽These members were able to hear the stories of the Decatur County Ag Man, Ag Woman, and Ag Influencer of the Year and how our industry is being advocated for in the legislature by State Senator Russ Goodman.
