Illinois FFA recognizes students in fifty different areas based on
their work-based learning, also known as Supervised Agricultural
Experiences or SAE. FFA members who demonstrate outstanding
agricultural skills and competencies through record keeping,
leadership, and scholastic achievement may be considered for this
award. SAEs allow students to learn by doing by either owning and
operating an agricultural business, working or serving an internship
at an agriculture-based business or conducting an agriculture-based
scientific experiment and reporting results.

Schempp, Miller, and Willoughby were selected as the

representatives and teachers knowledgeable in this work-based area.
