What an exciting first semester! We can’t believe it is already Christmas break! 🎄🎅🏻

We are always impressed with how resilient our members are this time of year. Not only were they preparing for finals, but we had our district testing and members were turning in materials that get pre-judged before district performance events. Lots going on for these kiddos in the last couple weeks before break.

Thank you to all of our parents, community members, and sponsors for the support you give FBLA to provide opportunities to our kiddos ❤️💙
