Hello everyone, Please share this with your area ag teachers!
I’m hosting aVIRTUAL Proficiency Writing Workshop on Sunday, November 23rd from 3:00–7:00 PM, and I’d love for you to be part of it.
Of the national finalists on the stage this year, 43 of them had ag teachers who have been through this workshop! I hope you will take advantage of this opportunity as well.
You can register through JudgingCard here:
https://www.judgingcard.com/Registration/Info.aspx?ID=23988
If you don’t have an account, just let me know — I’ll take care of you.
Registration is $50 per person.
The workshop will be recorded and sent to everyone who registers.
What We’ll Cover
This session is built for real, practical gains — not theory. We’ll dive into:
Setting students up for proficiency success through strong SAE selection and smart, simple record-keeping strategies.
A full walk-through of the application and rubrics so you know exactly how to write with purpose.
A live example application — I’ll write examples for each section during the workshop so you can see the entire process in real time.
Rules — both written and unwritten — that make or break competitive applications.
How scoring actually works and how to strategically position your students for the highest possible success.
What You’ll Receive
Your registration comes with a package of resources designed to make this year easier, clearer, and more successful:
12 State-winning proficiency applications
• 8 National Finalist applications
• 6 National ChampionsHands-on help with your own work — I’ll personally review and give feedback on one application you’re submitting this year.
Continued support — reach out anytime afterward for questions, guidance, or help strengthening your future applications.
I’m genuinely excited about this one — the tools and examples I’m sharing have helped students across Texas and across the country reach the national stage, and I’d love to help you do the same with your students. Let me know if you have any questions at all. See the flyer below for more information!
Hope to see you there!
