Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA) is a club at FHN that prepares students for what could be their future career. Students will be competing for a spot at internationals, which will occur this summer in California. They were able to get feedback and pointers to ensure they perform to their best ability at state. They mainly focus on business leading, marketing and business literacy. Abigail Davis, the club’s sponsor and business teacher, will be taking the district’s qualifiers to state in Springfield MO this April.
“Depending on events, different placements or scores need to be met for state qualification, same with internationals,” Davis said.
Davis is excited to see what’s next for FBLA’s competition season. She’s excited to see how they perform, but truly has one important goal.
“I don’t think succeeding would be the kids placing, I know the kids want to succeed and they want to win,” Davis said. “But I just care that they get the most out of this experience, they’re capable of learning and applying life-long skills.”
