FBLA Rocks Regional Competition

BY AMANDA MILLER, OPINIONS EDITOR

FBLA, Future Business Leaders of America, tested in various subjects Jan. 8 and 9 at West High for regional competition. The tests would then be scored and rewards would be given out at the regional competition on Jan. 30 at the Knoxville Expo Center, but due to Knox County being out for sickness, the competition was cancelled. The tests were still scored and the scores were put online for the FBLA members to look and see how they placed. FBLA is sponsored by teachers Kim Cook and Amy Whaley. Many of West High FBLA members placed in this competition.

The students who placed were as follows:

  • Andrew Goodman: 1st place computer problem solving
