Gatlin Squires of Kingfisher Heads the List of Eight Academic All State Award Winners at 2014 OYE


Eight top FFA members were honored as Academic All Staters by the Oklahoma Youth Expo on Thursday evening, The Academic All State Program is designed to model athletic all state programs in which a select few are recognized for their outstanding achievement and dedication to success.
