The Sequoyah High School Vocational Agriculture Program aims to empower youth grades 9 through 12 through agricultural education, financial literacy, and hands-on experiences in farming, ranching, and livestock management. Located within the Cherokee Nation Reservation in Oklahoma, Sequoyah High School serves a predominantly Indigenous student population, with 99% of students being Native American. By launching a vocational curriculum, establishing a local FFA chapter, and fostering community partnerships, the program seeks to equip students with the skills, leadership, and access to capital needed for future careers in agriculture. The program will serve 120 students in its first year—empowering youth to connect with their heritage, explore agricultural careers, and strengthen their leadership for the future of communities.
