At the end of January, the Paulding FFA secretary, treasurer, and reporter’s books were evaluated and graded. The chapter received not only a GOLD rating on all three books but they all also got a perfect score. 

The chapter is so proud of Jalyn Klopfenstein, Tyler Schlatter, and Grace Goyings for all of their hard work in earning a triple crown for their chapter. For the secretary book, Jalyn had to collect all of the meeting minutes and agendas for the year. She also had to write programs for the activities, keep attendance records, and collect correspondence from this school year. 

For the treasurer book, Tyler had to take month-by-month reports and balance the account based on what came in, and what is left in the account. He had to figure out each student’s financial records and kept records of the receipts and disbursements. Tyler also had to keep reports of the beginning and ending balance for each meeting. 

For the reporter book, Grace wrote and then collected newspaper articles and pictures throughout the year to use in the scrapbook. She had to put captions under all the pictures she used and make sure that every page was full of colors and decorative stickers. These officers did an amazing job and our chapter is very proud of all of the hard work that they put into their books. They will each get to walk across the stage at the Ohio FFA State Convention in May for their Gold Ratings.
