The COVID-19 pandemic is presenting new challenges every day. This will also have an impact on our local FBLA chapter. We had began the sale of smoked pork butts to help raise money for our members to attend the state leadership conference and compete in various events. However, with the new challenges arising from the pandemic we have decided that it would be best to CANCEL the sale of these smoked butts. If you have already purchased one from a member they should be reaching out to you soon in order to return the money that you had paid. If you do not hear from them, reach out to the member that you purchased from in regards to the return of your money. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause but we feel this is in the best interest for all at this time. We thank everyone for supporting our chapter!
Please see the attached message about our upcoming calendar changes due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

State Journalism Conference at Mizzou for March 24/25 has been cancelled. All journalism students who planned to attend will receive reimbursements in April.
NO CONFERENCES TODAY (3/12) AFTER 5:00 p.m.
Due to impending weather, we will be cancelling parent/teacher conferences after 5:00 p.m. tonight. We will try to reschedule any needed conferences once we are back from spring break. With the elementary setting, we do not want to have anyone waiting outside in the elements or traveling during dangerous weather. Please reach out to your child’s teacher or building offices to make any needed conference arrangements.
