How may a school principal become an FFA member?

A school principal may become an FFA member by becoming an honorary member. Honorary membership is specifically designed for individuals who have made significant contributions to the FFA and agricultural education but do not meet the criteria for full membership, such as being a student enrolled in an agriculture program. This category recognizes the support and involvement of educators and community leaders in promoting agricultural education and FFA activities.

While volunteering for events, serving on an advisory board, or joining as a full member may be involvement or support roles in FFA activities, these pathways do not specifically grant them membership in the same way that honorary membership does. Only individuals who are actively engaged in an agriculture program can be full members, and there are distinct requirements for those roles, differentiating them from honorary membership.
