Palmer FFA had some of their supporters receive their Honorary Lonestar Degree today at the Texas FFA State Convention. The Honorary Lonestar Degree honors individuals, business groups or organizations
who have made outstanding contributions to the FFA and agricultural education. We
appreciate your dedication to agriculture and to the youth of Texas. We would like to say thanks to Paul Fuller, Jeremy Robinson and Corey Robinson for their support of the students of the Palmer FFA Chapter as well as the support of other Ellis County Stock Show kids.
Today at the Texas FFA State Convention some of our Palmer FFA students were recognized for their hard work. Katilyn Jennings and Emma Spurlock attended the Lonestar Degree Ceremony where they were presented with their Lonestar Degree. Ebin Headrick and Jace Jones also earned their Lonestar Degree but were not able to attend the ceremony. These students worked extremely hard over their high school career maintaining a productive SAE (Supervised Agricultural Experience). Please congratulate these students on this achievement.

Congratulations to all of our ag mechanics students that earned certifications this year. Congratulations to our Navarro college Production Welder Certificate recipients who have worked through this program for the past two years. We also had a great number of students who earned their industry based certification by passing their AWS D9.1 Certification. Students also had the opportunity this year to take a new certification exam that tests their knowledge of welding content that has been taught throughout the course. So we had several students pass the Youscience Welding Technician Level 1 and Welding Technician Level 2 Exams. We are very proud of the accomplishments of these students
