OSAKIS — The Osakis FFA and members of the high school participated in "Drive Your Tractor to School Day" on Friday, May 20.
The elementary and high school students of Osakis had the opportunity to go outside and look at the tractors that showed up. Hailey Nierling, Osakis agriculture teacher and FFA advisor
said it was a fun way to celebrate the end of a great year for FFA.
Drive Your Tractor to School Day is a long-standing tradition that's held as part of the National Future Farmers of America Week, which takes place in February, and the Minnesota FFA state convention that took place April 24-26.

Our newsroom occasionally reports stories under a byline of "staff." Often, the "staff" byline is used when rewriting basic news briefs that originate from official sources, such as a city press release about a road closure, and which require little or no reporting. At times, this byline is used when a news story includes numerous authors or when the story is formed by aggregating previously reported news from various sources. If outside sources are used, it is noted within the story.
