Congratulations to Olivia Chan, Emily Harris, Emily Jacobius, Madison Setness, and Casey
Stein who traveled to Anaheim, California to compete at the DECA International Conference.
Olivia Chan and Emily Harris earned the competition’s highest honors as one of the world’s Top
10 in the Sports and Entertainment Promotion Plan Event. Way to go, ladies!
Congratulations also to our Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA) chapter for once again
being named a 2013 Honor Chapter at this year’s State Leadership Conference. To earn this
