6th Graders?
Due to the size of our county, we are unable to provide in-school meetings for 6th grade. However, 6th graders are invited to attend monthly evening Junior/Senior 4-H meetings at the 4-H office alongside our 7th–12th grade members. These meetings include leadership activities, service projects, guest speakers, and hands-on activities.
Important: For district and state events like District Project Achievement and 4-H Camp, 6th graders are still considered Cloverleafs and must register accordingly.
