FFA State Convention
Code of Conduct and Expectations
While participating in the Washington FFA State Convention and Expo, managed by the Washington FFA Association (“FFA”), there are certain behavior expectations that must be observed by all participants to maintain good standing with FFA and participation in these programs.
All participants in an event or activity sponsored by FFA are prohibited from involvement in unsafe, irresponsible, and/or illegal conduct. You are prohibited from consuming alcoholic beverages and using any tobacco products. You will not knowingly act in a manner that is disrespectful to another person. In addition, you must abide by all rules and regulations established by FFA for participation in the leadership conference.
I promise that my attitude, conduct, and appearance will be such to reflect credit on my chapter, school, community, and WA FFA state association. I will follow instructions from Washington FFA state staff/officers, volunteers, and other FFA advisors.
I promise to abide by the National FFA Code of Ethics.
As a representative of over 1,027,270 FFA members, I will be in appropriate attire as directed by FFA advisors, including proper official dress according to the Official FFA Manual.
I will NOT be in the dormitory room of another participant who is identified as the opposite sex. Failure to abide by this rule will result in immediate dismissal from the conference and my parent(s)/guardian(s) will be notified.
I will NOT use drugs, alcohol, or tobacco at any time during the conference. I will not participate in any illegal activities. I understand if I violate this rule, I will be sent home immediately at my own expense and my parent(s)/guardian(s) will be notified.
I will NOT tamper with or damage the facilities of our host site. I will pay for all personal costs including but not limited to incidentals, damage to WSU campus property, and any other costs incurred. My room will be kept neat and clean.
I will NOT act in such a manner that is disrespectful to another person in attendance at the Washington FFA State Convention and Expo.
FFA reserves the right to immediately dismiss from the conference anyone who is found to have violated these behavior expectations. Students terminated from the conference will be sent home at their own expense and will be responsible for all other expenses associated with their termination.
