Welcome to the first website of the Odin FFA located in Odin, Illinois. Our High School has an attendance of 100 students this year. We are located in south-central Illinois in a rural community, about 75 miles east of Saint Louis.
Our Agriculture program has three classes. Introduction to Agriculture Industries, Agri-Science II-III, and Ag-Business Management. We participate in as many FFA CDE's as is possible and attend the state and national conventions.
Probably the most unique activity that our chapter has is the owning, managing, and operation of a store within our school. It is called the "Eagle*Mart". Recently, we received a state grant with which we built, painted, stocked and began operating the store. It is open part of two days a week. Purchases, inventory, etc. is all done by our FFA students. It is a great opportunity and is very eye-opening to operate a business within the school. We are a national "first" with this idea and are the first in the nation to attempt this.
