The Lebanon FFA traveled with the Wesclin FFA to Springfield this week for the 98th annual FFA State Convention. We attended the career & college expo, made new friends from other FFA chapters, and we got to cheer on our very own, Blake Goetter, as he received his State Degree! Blake is our first State Degree recipient since we rechartered in 2020. It was a great week! The Illinois State FFA Degree is the highest honor a member can achieve at the state level. Awarded to less than 3-4% of Illinois FFA members, it recognizes exceptional work in Supervised Agricultural Experiences (SAEs) and significant leadership and community involvement.
Our Junior High Boys Basketball team just wrapped up a fantastic couple of days competing at the Greenville Tournament! 👏
The boys battled hard in every single game, posting a strong 5-3 record overall. They showed incredible grit and determination, with their only defeats being absolute nail-biters against Woodlawn and Bethalto, and a heartbreaking sudden-death overtime loss to Carlyle.
More than the wins, it was a great couple of days of competing, pushing each other, and getting better in the gym. Way to work, boys! We are proud of your effort! 💪
📣 Next Up: The Girls Take the Court! Good luck to our Junior High Girls Basketball team as they head up to Greenville to compete over the next couple of days! Let's keep the momentum going! 🔥

Can anyone spot the Lebanon alumni in the team picture in front of the Greenville University banner?
Congratulations to Sr. Collin Adams and Jr. Joseph Corbitt for earning all-conference honors in baseball for the Kaskaskia Division this year!
Had a great night Tuesday night recognizing our softball, baseball and track athletes at our final sports recognition night of the 2025-2026 school year. Again I want to thank the administration for supporting our student athletes, our athletic booster club for providing desserts and drinks that night and all their hard work throughout the year raising funds and supporting our teams. Also I want to thank Lori Reinneck, my assistant, for all the help this year, Karla Halde, our athletic trainer, for treating our injured athletes and helping keep the others healthy. Also thank you to the parents for coming out and supporting our teams throughout the year. The fall sports seasons will be here before you know it. Congratulations to all of our award winning athletes! Not pictured: Joseph Corbitt, highest batting avg and Collin Adams best E.R.A.and both were named All-Conference!

We will have our high school track, baseball and softball sports recognition night next Tuesday June 2nd at 6:30 in the high school commons. We would like to have as many of our players and family's present as possible. We understand that summer vacations may be going on but with baseball season ending after the last day of school, we wanted to wait until their season was over. Hope everyone has a great summer.
23 student athletes came in from 8-9:30 today and got a great workout in. Very proud of each of them for setting the example of what we will expect from our athletes moving forward. They set the bar today now let's keep moving the bar up!
Let's get more athletes tomorrow!
