Press release:
Evan Sidhu and Evelyn Northrup of Pavilion ranked seventh in the nation among Future Farmers of America for their agricultural science research project in the field of natural resources and environmental science.
The two students spent countless hours researching the effects of roadway pollution shown through the dissolved solids in snow.
Evan and Evelyn designed, organized, and executed their research project last winter. They placed first at the New York State FFA Convention in May 2022 and earned a spot in the Top 10 in the nation.
This fall the team competed in an intense interview regarding their research and conclusions. This earned them the seventh spot in the nation.
"This is a great honor for the Pavilion FFA and Pavilion School Community," said teacher Kylie DeBerardinis
