Reeds Spring High School students earned 16 medals at the FBLA (Future Business Leaders of America) District Leadership Conference, held at Missouri State University on February 7.
"I am extremely proud of this group of kids,” said FBLA sponsor Ronda Plaster. “They worked really hard to practice their performances and case studies despite all of the bad weather we had the week before the conference. They found ways to practice online and meet in person so that they were ready on the day of the district conference. Many of them had been preparing since last October. I enjoyed getting to see all their hard work pay off and share in their successes."
