The Washington-Wilkes Comprehensive High School Chapter of Future Business Leaders of America has been named a Georgia FBLA Gold Chapter. Out of 412 chapters, only 22 chapters in the state of Georgia received this award. In addition to the Georgia Gold Chapter award, the chapter was also named a National FBLA Outstanding Chapter.
To achieve the Gold designation, the chapter had to complete community service and school service projects; hold professional business meetings; increase chapter membership; compete at the region, state, and national level; attend leadership conferences; participate in National FBLA Week activities; and complete many other state and national programs.
W-W FBLA members and advisers traveled to Athens, Georgia, to attend the Georgia State Leadership Conference March 14-16. Attending the conference were Katie Haughey, Amber Jordan, Lauren Harrison, Lindsey Guin, Cayla Gilland, Jessica Spradlin, Keyonna Wynn, Jessica Echols, Dawn Powers, Michael Edwards, Timothy Robinson, Milton James, Rob Lovvorn, John Lovvorn, Josh Cosby, Blake Rogers, Mrs. Amy Harkins, and Mrs. Tanya Morgan.
At the Awards Ceremony, the chapter was recognized for the Georgia and National Award. Georgia FBLA is not divided into divisions according to the size of the school. So, WW FBLA members were thrilled to be honored along with many AAAA and AAAAA schools. In addition to the chapter award, several members placed in the top 10 in their competitive event including John Lovvorn, third place, Future Business Leader; Jessica Spradlin, fourth place, FBLA Principles and Procedures; Lauren Harrison, fifth place, FBLA Principles and Procedures; Amber Jordan and Lindsey Guin, fifth place, Community Service Project; Rob Lovvorn, ninth place, Business Math; and Tyson Gilland, tenth place, Economics.
