As Mr. Tappan said, " It is not too often that at a show of this size and magnitude that an FFA chapter has every heifer that they exhibit place in the top 10 of their respective classes. It was truly a pleasure and honor to be associated with these fine young men and women as they exhibited their cattle at such a high level."
We are so proud of the following students, Mr. Tappan, Ms. Tindel, and the entire FFA program:
Mallory Mobly – 7th place Simbrah out of 18
Ethan Grimes – 4th place Brahman out of 33
Samantha Crocker – 1st place Beefmaster out of 8
Billy Crocker – 1st place Brahman out of 33 and was also honored by competing for and winning the Calf Division Reserve Grand Champion
Congratulations and thanks guys and girls for bringing such great recognition to Eustace ISD and the community!

See below the example of how to put a "YouTube" style Flash video in your Moodle, even if it's not from YouTube and even if you don't have a YouTube block/mod.
This just a matter of putting the block/html editor in "Source" mode and pasting the code provided by the video hosting service. In this case it is TeacherTube, though it can be done as easily with SchoolTube, UStream, Animoto, etcetera. When doing it like this in the margin it is necessary to adjust the resolution numbers (a little less than half) in the code but in the main Topic areas you can use full size or maybe larger.
These articles are in no particular order but should not be re-arranged due to links pointing directly to the topic number. An index could be created to facilitate access.
