Conference Overview
Executing with Excellence is designed for graduating seniors, guiding them in translating their experiences in the FFA jacket into their lives after high school. With a focus on the future, participants will explore how to pursue their dreams, serve others, and develop a personal philosophy to guide them in their post-secondary education and career paths. Executing with Excellence equips students with the tools to navigate the transition from high school to their future endeavors with purpose and integrity. Executing with Excellence will be a one-day experience held in conjunction with the Made for Excellence and Building Excellence conferences. The same conference will be hosted at all locations across Texas on each of the different dates. Dates for conferences can be found HERE.
