Keota FFA wins state soils contest; board approves travel to Indianapolis
Summary
Student Zach Jamison told the board the Keota FFA Soil Judging team placed first in the state and plans to compete in a national soils contest in Oklahoma in spring; separately the board approved an FFA trip to the National Convention in Indianapolis, 4‑0.
Zach Jamison reported to the Keota School District Board of Education on Aug. 8 that the FFA Soil Judging team placed first in the state and named team members Aiden (Ayden) Galindo, Jack Greiner, Jacob Liebe and Jackson Vittetoe; Jamison said the team will compete in a national soils contest in Oklahoma in the spring.
Separately, the board voted to approve an FFA request to travel to the National Convention in Indianapolis. Dan Redlinger moved to approve the trip; Andy Conrad seconded and the motion carried 4‑0.
The meeting record lists both the state soils victory and the approved convention travel as distinct items: Jamison’s report described the soils team’s competition schedule, while the board’s action authorized travel for an FFA delegation to Indianapolis. The board did not provide a cost breakdown for the approved travel during the meeting.
The board and district staff congratulated the team; no further logistics were discussed publicly at the meeting.
