Distinguished Service and Continued Excellence Awards
These awards are selected locally, but recognized nationally. Kansas is able to select 2 for each award per year.
Qualified applicants must fill out the DSA Application on the NEAFCS website and then be selected by the state awards committee. (The applications will not be reviewed by NEAFCS) The only way to get the names in the system is for people to apply themselves.
