The Elba Bluejays took to the stage this year with a drama about sacrifice, love, and loss, At Any Moment. The play focuses on a pair of gifted twins, Becky (Marissa Usasz) and Alyson (Ayana Usasz), their parents (Alana Berney and Trevon Rasmussen), and their younger brother Toby (Garrett Wells) in the days preceding and following a tragic accident.

The St. Paul FFA chapter completed a successful trip to the National FFA Convention, where chapter members earned several awards and honors. While at the convention, four members— Gracie Ackles, Matthew Kramer, Layne Baker, and Emersen Hancock—earned a twelfth place (gold) finish in the Environmental and Natural Resources contest. Members competed in a variety of hands-on activities including soil and water testing, species identification, GPS usage, and general knowledge. Just graduated member Sidney Gawrych was a national runner-up in the Environmental and Natural Resources Management proficiency area. To earn her place, Gawrych had to submit a comprehensive overview of her SAE project at Conservation Blueprint and then complete a subsequent interview. Seven members of the chapter completed and earned the requirements for the American FFA degree with two of the members attending the convention in person to receive the award. Aidan Anderson and Zach Hirschman were able to make the trip, while Ahna Jerabek, John Placke, Max Sawnson, Nate Jameson, and Nick Busse were able to earn the award but did not attend. Several other members attended the convention and were able to participate in sessions, tours, and visit the Expo, where they interacted with businesses and colleges. Those members included Josef Kaslon, Cole Brus, Karina Smydra, Jalee Haggerty, Makenzie Shreve, Joel Kaslon, Braden Hirschman, and Bryce Rose. Assistant Advisor Tara Sjuts and parents Julie Gawrych and Kassie Hancock attended as sponsors.
