Appomattox Sr. FFA received top honors at the 99^th Virginia FFA Convention. The chapter placed first in the National Chapter Award contest out of 217 agricultural education programs with 33,300 agriculture students across the Commonwealth.

Appomattox FFA has been recognized for its commitment to growing leaders, building skills, and strengthening agriculture. The selection was based on its extensive range of activities. Notable programs and accomplishments during the 2024-2025 school year included the Chapter Leadership Training Program, the Drunk and Distracted Driving Awareness Program known as “Grim Reaper Day”, the Pen Pal Program with Appomattox Middle School, and the FFA Jacket Jubilee. Other initiatives were the Souper Bowl Food Drive, the “Drive a Tractor to School” Day parade, the Raider Road Rescue Kit program, FFA Legislative Day at the Capitol, and a tour for kindergarten students from Appomattox Primary School. The chapter also engaged in recruitment activities at Dark Leaf Farm and assisted with the Historic Appomattox Railroad Festival parade. Additionally, a dynamic partnership was fostered with the Appomattox FFA Alumni Association and the Appomattox County Farm Bureau. This significant achievement was made possible under the leadership of the 2024-2025 chapter FFA officer team.
