Rauschenfels and Jacobsen honored by FFA

Sonoma Valley High School Vice Principal Chris Rauschenfels and supporting staff secretary Edyta Jacobson beat out administrators from 10 area high schools to be honored with the FFA State Star Administrator award program in the Sonoma Section.

The award recognizes high school administrators, career technical education directors and others classified staff who provide outstanding service to the local FFA (formerly Future Farmers of America) program. The award is designed to recognize administrators who go above and beyond to provide opportunities for their students.

Rauschenfels and Jacobson were nominated by Sonoma FFA students and were judged based on the student submissions. Next they will be judged for the North Coast Region which covers from Half Moon Bay to Crescent City. The regional winners will compete at the statewide level.

SVHS senior Jasmine Johnstone said, “Though we have an amazing and supportive staff all together, Mr. Rauschenfels and Mrs. Jacobson have such a great attitude at all of our chapter events. If we ever need anything they are always a phone call away and go above and beyond their job to help students in our FFA chapter.”
