FBLA Takes 2nd in 2024 Competition
On February 3, 2024, the Amherst chapter of FBLA competed at the regional academic competition for business. There were 29 schools in the competition, including four Division 1 schools (as FBLA competes geographically and not by student enrollment). In addition, there were more than 600 students competing. I am proud to say that Amherst took 2nd place overall as a team. We have 73 members in our club, and 38 of them placed in the top 3 of their competitive events. This qualified these 38 for the state leadership conference and competition in Green Bay. Check out our FBLA page for specific results.
Special thanks to Jodi Zblewski, Hunter Warner, Tanner Schelvan, and Carter Zblewski for working the FBLA regional on Amherst's behalf. Special thanks also to all staff 4K-12 who have prepared our students to intellectually compete and dominate so many other schools.
