Press Release:
Kansas Students Earn Agriculture Skills and Competencies Certificates Setting the Stage for Future Ag Industry Leadership
MANHATTAN, Kansas — Forty-three students from seven schools in Kansas have been awarded the Kansas Department of Agriculture’s Kansas Agriculture Skills and Competencies Certificate. High schools with students earning certificates include Buhler, Cheney, Ellsworth, Holton, Lyons, Mission Valley and Republic County.
Students have completed requirements in the areas of classroom instruction, supervised agricultural experience (SAE) and FFA. They have demonstrated excellence in agricultural knowledge, career readiness, and leadership development. Students must also maintain a cumulative GPA of 2.5 or higher in all school courses to earn the certification.
“Students earning the Ag Skills and Competencies Certificate have truly taken steps to set themselves apart from their peers. The certificate completers will be some of the most well-rounded high school students, not only in the agriculture discipline, but Kansas graduates across all areas of the state in the class of 2025. The career skills, hands-on experiences and technical knowledge gained from their four years in agricultural education — these future leaders have put many tools in their toolbox that will serve them well for a lifetime,” said Jason Larison, the agricultural education teacher at Holton High School.
“As agriculture evolves with advancing technologies and practices, the demand for a skilled and knowledgeable workforce has never been greater,” said Suzanne Ryan-Numrich, KDA marketing director. “These students represent the future of Kansas agriculture — equipped with the training, experience, and leadership qualities needed to thrive in a modern, competitive industry. We celebrate their accomplishments and look forward to the contributions they will make to our state’s agricultural success.”
For over 10 years, the certificate has been endorsed by industry organizations and employers. Applications for the Kansas Agriculture Skills and Competencies Certificate are accepted each spring. To find more information, visit agriculture.ks.gov/AgEducation.

💰Let’s Talk about Money💰
School budgets are developed in July as the [projected] or intended tax levies must be certified to the county by July 20. These budgets are either approved in August or September -- if exceeding Revenue Neutral, which general happens due to increased land valuations and inflation.
To provide more community involvement and input in the process, Holton will be hosting a Budget Workshop on June 17 at 5:30pm in the Holton Middle School library.
Due to Holton housing the Special Education budget for the five member-districts, HSEC will also provide information on how the Special Education budget operates and identify how those are connected yet separate.
ALL Holton USD 336 patrons and taxpayers are welcome! We love to the community engagement and hope to see you there!

Dear Parents,
I'm writing to inform you about an important change regarding extracurricular participation fees for the upcoming school year. The School Board approved the elimination of the $30 Student Activity fee (extracurricular participation fee).
In the past, this $30 fee covered a student's participation in extracurricular activities and also served as their gate pass for home athletic events. With the elimination of this fee, there's a slight adjustment to how students will access home sporting events.
For students who wish to attend home athletic events for the school year, a "Gate Pass" will now be available for purchase at $30. This pass will grant students access to home games for the academic year. Students not purchasing the Gate Pass will need to pay the standard admission fee at the gate for each event they attend. Once enrollment opens, you can purchase a Gate Pass through E-Funds.
We believe this change simplifies the fee structure and provides more flexibility for families.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact the school office.
Thanks,
Jeremy Truelove, HHS Principal
