Carson High School FBLA Students Net 26 Top Ten Finishes at State, Qualify Nine for Nationals
Fourteen Carson High School (CHS) Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA) recently attended and participated at the State Business Leadership Conference in Reno, where they walked away with 26 top ten finishes in business career related events. Out of those 26 awards, nine students placed in the top four, which qualified them to participate at Nationals in Chicago, Ill., June 28 - July 3.
Due to cost constraints and summer vacation conflicts, only three CHS students will attend the national event: Zach Nichols, Eva Lindbloom and McKenzie Merrell. The following is a list of awards and events won by the CHS students. FBLA is the largest business career and technical student organization in the world with over 230,000 members.
