🎭 STATE ONE ACT COMPETITION!! 🎭 We arrived in a blur of hairspray, costumes, and last-minute line checks… and somehow still managed to look like functioning humans onstage. A win already! We Gained: • Memories • Backstage chaos that built character (and possibly trauma bonding) • Confidence that grew every time someone didn’t trip over a prop • A cast bond powered by caffeine, trauma, and laughter • Lessons we didn't know we needed • Moments that hit us right in the dramatic-actor-soul • A renewed fear of quick-changes • Enough adrenaline to power a small city We Left With: • A Superior Actor Award — 🎉Great Job, KARA!! 🎉Go ahead, shine that spotlight brighter! • Pride so big it didn’t fit back on the bus • Seniors we’re absolutely not ready to let go of • Teary eyes disguised as “allergies” • Being ONE. PLACE. shy of Day Two (we’re fine… totally fine… it’s fine) • Stories that we'll be retelling for years • Voices a little gone, energy mostly gone, hearts completely full • The reminder that this group shows up for each other every single time

The FBLA chapter celebrated national Entrepreneurship Month by touring Prairie Sky Bread today. We learned about being an entrepreneur, cost of goods, mixing dough, and baking our own bread. We had a blast! Plus, Mr. Clark bakes bread now!

Our local First District Health Unit is looking for insight. You may even be a lucky winner!

The FBLA members just finished some community service at Matthew 25 Project in Minot. If you aren't familiar with it, ask a member!
