​Public Speaking

​

Merced FFA strongly promotes public speaking and provides many opportunities for our students to gain public speaking skills that they can use throughout their lives in the future.

- Creed
-

- Impromptu
- Job Interview
​- Prepared Public Speaking

Creed

This contests is for Greenhands only.
Students will memorize and comprehend the FFA Creed extensively. The contest begins with reciting the creed followed by questions about the Creed. Contact Mr. Mua for more details.
