A Greene County High School teacher recently won an award for her work in agriculture.

FFA Advisor Raelyn Harris earned the Iowa Association of Agricultural Educators Southwest District Outstanding Young Member award. The award is given to young teachers to remain in the profession and encourage participation in professional activities. One award is given to a  young agricultural educator in each district in the state. 

According to IAAE, Harris was selected for the honor because of her work to build and sustain the local Greene County FFA chapter. Harris will be formally recognized at the IAAE summer conference in June.
