What an awesome performance by our members at the FBLA Southwest Regional Leadership/Competitive Events Conference held at Lincolnton High School, in Lincolnton, NC!!!
Mrs. Jackson and Ms. Harris accompanied these members along with six other members, where they got to attend workshops on Leadership, Time Management, Budgeting 101, etc., and also networked with members from other local and regional chapters.
They will now advance to the state convention, where they will compete against other region winners from across the state during the FBLA State Convention March 19-21, 2018.
Thank you so much for supporting FBLA at Sedgefield and allowing us to make a difference in the future of students.
