Caching Up: FBLA WINS!

Cross-posted on Changing Connections

The next few blogs constitute a series of “catching up,” getting back to really important postings that just slipped away from me during the crush of a very busy school year. Here’s the first, and it is both good news and bad news, bittersweet.

FBLA, under the guidance of the inimitable Frank Lane, posted their best-ever record. The bad news: Mr. Lane is relinquishing his post as coach of the FBLA team, going out on his students’ best-ever season. We will miss him at the helm of FBLA and we will miss him at SHS.  I learned today that Mr. Lane has accepted a position at Parkland.  We are happy for him but he filled a space that is truly hard to fill, both in the classroom and in our hearts.  We will miss you, Mr. Lane.

Here’s what the students accomplished:

Shannon Safi and Megan Walsh: Digital Video Production--6th Place

Nick Fisher: Introduction to Technology Concepts--5th Place

Willian Kennington and Dennis Peterson: Desktop Publishing--did not place in the top ten.

John Soler , John Gardus, AJ Safi: Global Business--2nd Place and qualified for National Competition

Megan Cassel, Courtney Loomis, Matt Cialkowski: Management and Decision Making--3rd Place and qualified for National Competition.

Two teams qualified for Nationals, and that is a major accomplishment for our students, their teacher, Mr. Lane, and our school. We are so proud of you.
