Laboratory experiences
providing hands-on activities relating to the mastery of skills in agriculture mechanic technology, animal and plant science technology (including microbiology, biochemical and genetic disciplines), natural resource technology (including land, air and/or water laboratories), and computer applications.

Student leadership training through FFA, a national student leadership organization for students studying agriculture. Skills include teamwork, organization, career decision-making, and oral and written communications.
