As part of the observance for National FFA Week – officially running Feb. 13 through 17 – the Escalon FFA has launched a community service project. The goal is to help raise money for the Escalon Animal Shelter, providing for the many dogs and cats housed there while awaiting adoption. Special collection jars have been placed in each teacher’s classroom on the campus at Escalon High School and students in the fourth period classes for each teacher are being asked to contribute to the cause.
