LEVI HUGE RECOGNIZED AS DISTRICT FFA PROFICIENCY WINNER
Levi Huge was selected as the District FFA Proficiency Winner in Poultry Production Entrepreneurship. Levi is a member of the Centralia FFA Chapter of the Illinois Association FFA. Illinois FFA recognizes students in forty-eight areas based on their work-based learning, also known as Supervised Agricultural Experiences or SAE. FFA members who demonstrate outstanding agricultural skills and competencies through record keeping, leadership, and scholastic achievement may be considered for this award. SAEs allow students to learn by doing, by either owning and operating an agricultural business, working or serving an internship at an agriculture-based business or conducting an agriculture-based scientific experiment and reporting results.
Levi was selected as the District 5 Winner by a committee of agriculture industry representatives and teachers knowledgeable in this work-based area. Levi is the son of Brittany and Ian Huge and his FFA Advisor is Mehgan English.
Receiving this honor now makes Levi eligible to compete in the State FFA Awards Selection process in Mt. Zion, IL on Saturday, March 22, 2025. Levi was previously chosen as the Chapter and Section awardee in this area.
