One of the many clubs here at Boone High is FCCLA (Family, Career, Community, Leaders of America). FCCLA is a national career and technical organization that provides personal growth, leadership development, and career preparation opportunities for students in Family and Consumer Sciences education. The goal of FCCLA is to promote leadership skills and strong families through community service projects and activities. Being in FCCLA is a great way to meet new people, travel, and gain leadership skills.
FCCLA week is from February 15th to the 20th. It’s just a week where every school across the state promotes and informs their school about FCCLA. For this week, members of FCCLA are going to show their appreciation to the rest of the teachers by making them a special, delicious treat. There will also be promotional posters around the school for everybody to check out. During advisee, there will be a competition between all advisees, and the advisee that finished the competition and gets to Laura Beaver’s room first will win a prize.
Sophomore and President of FCCLA Emily Braun said, “People should join FCCLA because it gives you a big opportunity to meet new people and give back to your community. My favorite part of being a member of FCCLA is the star events. Star events are something that happen once a year. You sign up for them, and what you do is you go present in front of three judges about something your FCCLA chapter has done, something you're passionate about, or something else. If you do good at districts you go to state, and then only a few members from there go to nationals. My goal this year is to good at state, so maybe I could go to nationals, because nobody from Boone has ever been able to go to nationals.”
Any students interested in FCCLA are welcomed to join. If anyone would like to join they can go talk to Ms. Beaver or come to a meeting. Meetings are on the first Wednesday of every month in the FCS room at 7:30.
