FBLA competed in the bi-area competition December 2nd - December 7th.
We registered 187 students in the competitions and were very successful in representing LASA at the area event. Students and student teams that placed 1st through 4th in their respective events qualify for State competition in February with a chance for Nationals at the end of June. When all was said and done, we had enough representation that nearly every single one of them is eligible for State!
Rather than posting each person and still giving recognition to those who performed among the top, please join me in congratulating the following 147 students who managed to take a top-3 placement in their events at Area.
