The Pea Ridge FFA Chapter held Parent Member night on Monday, Nov. 13.

Parent Member Night is for the students and parents to gather and enjoy the progress the students have made in FFA. Three awards are presented -- the Discovery Degree, the Greenhand Degree and the Chapter Degree.

The Discovery Degree is eligible for first-year members in eighth grade who had paid their FFA dues. There were 10 recipients of the Discovery Degree.

The Greenhand Degree is for first-year members not in eighth grade who have learned the FFA Creed, motto and know the meaning of the FFA emblems and colors. There were 19 recipients of the Greenhand Degree.

The Chapter Degree is for students who have received the Greenhand Degree and completed 180 hours of school in or above the ninth grade. There were four recipients of the Chapter Degree.

In total, there were 33 members to receive awards Monday. Once everyone received awards, students spent time talking with friends and parents.
