Thanks to FBLA judges

On Feb. 19, more than 300 local high school FBLA [Future Business Leaders of America] students met at the University Center for their District 15 Competition.

These students represented 12 local high schools and competed in more than 50 business-related events, including everything from accounting to Web page design and business ethics to public speaking.

This annual event would not be possible if not for the judges. This event requires more than 60 judges from all areas of business and education.

FBLA District Competition is an amazing opportunity for our students, and we want to thank these judges and their employers for making it possible.
