Elementary School -

Our Palmer FFA and Jr. FFA members are still trucking at the Ellis County Youth Expo! Yesterday was another busy day with the broiler and goat show! 4 Palmer students competed in the goat show and all did well getting their animals set and shown for the judge. Although only 1 student stuck a sale spot, all 4 did amazingly well, especially since it was 3 out of 4 of their first county showing goats! Congrats to Reese Wright on placing 3rd and getting a sale spot! Goat exhibitors include: Rosa Castillo Laney McCarty Lucy McCarty Reese Wright
