When Brandon Poole of the Franklin County FFA Chapter in Carnesville, Georgia read about the lack of agriscience teachers, he decided to do his part in fulfilling the need.
With his agricultural education SAE, he worked with his teachers to develop the skills necessary to eventually become an ag educator. What began with grading papers
and cleaning dry erase boards has evolved into creating curriculum, lesson plans and classroom activities. Poole is supported by his parents Tina Askew and Duane Poole and his FFA advisors Gary Minyard, Cale Watkins and Owen Thomason. This award is sponsored by The James F. Lincoln Arc Welding Foundation and Tulsa Welding School.
