By Julie Burton

Adair County Middle School FBLA Chapter recently cleaned house at Middle School State. 

State Results

FIRST, Students that make up the ACMS chapter of FBLA, are nothing short of AMAZING!!

These kids showed up and showed out, mind you, this chapter is BRAND NEW!  We became an official chapter on January 29th.  With the State conference already on the horizon we didn’t intend to compete, but thankfully Mr. JR Thompson encouraged me to sign them up and GO FOR IT!!   All of this to say, these 28 kids had less than 3 weeks to prepare for today, and just wait until you scroll down and see what we brought home!!
