Several Lake Roosevelt students will head to state competition this month in the Future Business Leaders of America statewide contest in Spokane April 20-23.
Sam Amarilla, Kaitylyn Nordine, Noah Hunt and Kailah Leadingham will compete in their respective categories, ranging from business law to broadcast journalism to help desk.
The team earned the right to compete at state in Wenatchee in February when they took three first place wins, four seconds, two thirds, a fourth and a sixth.
Advisor Susan Duclos received permission to go on the trip from the Grand Coulee Dam School District Board of Directors at their meeting Monday night.
Duclos noted this will be the first time in two years they’ve attended the competition in person, with the COVID-19 emergency earlier relegating their participation to online only.
The trip will cost more, about $3,300, she said. That comes out of the Associated Student Body funds dedicated for such uses, and to which the group contributed through fundraisers.
