West Central NCATA Regional Teacher of the Year

Congratulations to Chris Maner, our West Central Regional Teacher of the Year!

Years Teaching: 15

Classes Taught: Foundations of Agriculture, Horticulture, Landscape Construction, Turfgrass Management, Agricultural Production, Agricultural Mechanics, and Animal Science

Why I Chose to Teach Agriculture:

“Teaching agriculture allows me to show the value of experiential learning and give students a true understanding of our nation’s most essential industry and where our food comes from. I teach agriculture because it allows me to provide the same opportunities that I received through my years in FFA.”

Join us in celebrating our Regional Teachers of the Year and the impact they make on agricultural education across North Carolina!
