For the third year in a row, Mount Pleasant High School FFA members are the champions of the fifth annual Ag Olympics. MPHS hosted Pittsburg FFA on Tuesday, September 9 for an evening of pizza, games, and team building. Ag Olympics is combination of team relay races and challenges including hay stacking, egg in the spoon race, water balloon toss, feed sack races, and cup stacking. In addition, the teams competed against each other in a relay race and a tug-o-war. The winner hosts the next year so the sixth annual Ag Olympics will stay at Mount Pleasant High School in 2026 to keep the tradition going.
