The South Dakota FFA Association named Dani Herring as their new executive secretary. Herring currently teaches agricultural education in Wall, South Dakota. She says agricultural education needs to be prioritized in South Dakota schools. “The FFA experience can’t be overshadowed, because students learn real world skills. There are students we are losing in some places. We have to continually grow the kinds of students in agricultural education in the state.” Herring is looking forward to working with the new state FFA officer team in the year ahead. “It’s going to be great to see them grow and develop as leaders and promoters of the organization.” Herring doesn’t have an official start date at this time, but hopes to begin in June. She will re-locate to the Brookings area.
