FFA – Future Farmers of America
Organized in 1928, the Future Farmers of America brought together students, teachers, and agri-business to solidify support for agricultural education. In 1988, the name of the organization was changed to The National Organization of FFA to represent the growing diversity of agriculture. Therefore, FFA is not just for future farmers but for anyone interested in agricultural education. The FFA operates on local, state, and national levels. Student members belong to chapters organized at the local school level. Agricultural education instructors serve as chapter advisors. Chapters are organized under state associations headed by an advisor and executive secretary, often employees of the state department of education. States conduct programs and host annual conventions.

NHS – National Honor Society
The National Honor Society (NHS) is the nation’s premier organization established to recognize outstanding high school and middle-level students. More than just an honor roll, NHS and NJHS serve to honor those students who have demonstrated excellence in the areas of Scholarship, Leadership, Service, and Character (and Citizenship for NJHS). These characteristics have been associated with membership in the organization since their beginnings in 1921 and 1929.
To be eligible for membership, students must attain a GPA of 3.5 or higher on a 4.0 scale. A 5 member Faculty Council looks at the volunteer service, leadership activities, club, and sports participation, as well as work that prospective members self-report. Input and recommendations from the entire faculty are solicited.

This evidence of leadership, service, and character is reviewed by the faculty council and a majority vote of the council is required for the selection of new members. Induction of new junior and senior class members is held in the fourth quarter.  After induction, members of the Eagle chapter at Eagle Grove High School must maintain a 3.5 or higher GPA.
