CHS students attend N.D. FBLA conference

Local officers Sydney Friedt, Sophie Garr, Madison Johnson, Kendall Kovar, Luke Page, Jack Paulson, Mya Schroeder, and Haley Wolsky of the Carrington Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA) chapter attended the ND FBLA Fall Leadership Conference in Bismarck on October 9-10.

Over 500 FBLA high school and middle school members and advisers from across the state participated in this conference where the emphasis was on developing the leadership skills of local chapter members.

Members attending the conference had the opportunity to participate in sessions that focused on leadership development, the power of character, and ways to reduce and cope with stress and anxiety.

Kendall Kovar, N.D. State FBLA Region IV Vice President, also led a session for schools' local chapter presidents and vice presidents. In addition, chapters had an opportunity to learn about state and national FBLA membership and recognition programs.

FBLA is a professional organization for students interested in pursuing business careers. This year's theme "One Association for Service, Education & Progress" reflects the mission and goals that FBLA members strive to achieve.

North Dakota FBLA members are some of the best and brightest of today's young people. FBLA's mission is to inspire and prepare students to become community-minded business leaders in a global society through relevant career preparation and leadership experience. To
