We had another incredibly successful FBLA State Competition and Conference! Please forward this message to staff and post it on the school website/social media.
Our students will bring their medals and trophies to display in the main office tomorrow or Friday (if they remember). I'd love to arrange a group photo, but we'll need to determine the best time for that.
