STAR Events

Since November, the six students enrolled in Advanced Leadership and who are FCCLA club members have been working on partner competitive STAR Events. STAR Events are Students Taking Action with Recognition. One group, competed at the Region 10 STAR Events on January 29th, 2015 in the category of Chapter in Review. This group helped organized each event our chapter plans, attended almost every event, wrote newspaper articles about each event, and took pictures of  the events.  This group received a gold medal and will be competing in the State STAR Events competition this March. The second group, competed at the Region 10 STAR Events in the category of National Programs in Action. These two students planned two checkpoints for seat belt safety, they invited a guest speaker from Mercy Injury Prevention to talk to the student body about the safety of wearing your seat belt, they created a video about seat belt safety, and gave everyone in the school a pledge card to sign. Each pledge card was a promise to always wear their seat belt in a motor vehicle and to never text and drive. This group received a gold medal and will be competing in the State STAR Events in March as well. The third group of students created a website for the Pleasant Hope High School FCCLA Chapter. They posted pictures of every event, the current FCCLA PHHS chapter officers, and awards won in the past. This group of students automatically get to go on to State and will compete there for a chance to go to Nationals this summer in Washington D.C. The link to the website is provided in the quick links on the right side of the screen.
