Who became the first female national FFA president?

• A. Jan Eberly
• B. Susan Benton
• C. Mary Johnson
• D. Angela Carter

Answer: (A)

This question tests knowledge of a historic milestone in FFA leadership—the first woman to reach the national presidency. Jan Eberly is the correct answer because she became the National FFA Organization’s first female president, marking a significant moment for gender inclusion in agricultural leadership. The national president leads the organization, represents FFA publicly, and advocates for agricultural education at the national level, so her election signaled progress within the FFA and inspired future generations of members. The other names listed did not hold the national presidency as the first female leader, though they may have served in other roles within the organization.
