“We had so much fun learning about what FCCLA was,” freshman Yana Bharat said. “Plus we got to leave school. It was a fun day.” 

The FCCLA leaders taught sessions on the importance of helping out local communities as well as how to become an officer and different competitions that are available. 

“It was a great experience to get to learn more about FCCLA,” freshman Ella Ortiz said. “I’m glad we got to go.”

“It was an amazing bonding moment,” freshman Aileen Escobar said. “It was so fun and I love FCCLA so much more now.”

I am fifteen years old and a sophomore this year. This year is my second year doing journalism as well as FCCLA. Being a part of the FCCLA team was really fun and I look forward to making many more fun and exciting memories. In my free time, I love to paint, draw, and color. One of my favorite things to paint is sunsets and oceans. My favorite genre to read in my free time is murder mysteries. I am also doing powerlifting; I enjoy lifting heavy weights, especially if I am competing with it. One of my favorite foods is Mariana's mom’s chicken and beans tostadas, I could eat them ALL day. My favorite snack is rice crispy treats dipped in white chocolate; yes they are really sweet and might make your teeth hurt, but they are too good to not risk a cavity lol.
