FCCLA Advances to State STAR Events
The Putnam County FCCLA competed at Regional STAR (Students Taking Action for Recognition) Events on February 1st, 2019 with much success. The Putnam County FCCLA had 10 members who participated in Region 3 competition at Atlanta High School. The events span various areas related to Family and Consumer Sciences. These projects are rigorous and require hours of preparation that, for some of the students, is done outside of class. Students develop a range of items including research portfolios, display boards, and oral presentations. It allows students to develop oral and written communication in areas of personal interest.
Students competed against other FCCLA members across the northeast corner of the state. Students can receive gold, silver, or bronze based on the scoring of their projects at regional competition. All students who competed received Gold ratings at regional competition, which qualified them to move on to the State STAR events.
The following students participated at regional STAR events:
Job Interview: Emily D - State Qualifier
