WHAT IS FBLA?
FBLA is a national organization for high school students who are interested in pursuing a business career.
The purpose of FBLA is to provide additional opportunities for students in business programs to develop career supportive competencies and to promote civic and personal responsibility.
A state and national Leadership Conference involves competitive events which give the students an opportunity to compete with other schools in the state and the nation.
FBLA members also have the opportunity to operate the Eagle's Outlet school store and gain practical experience. View the FBLA fact sheet here.
