Great News From Mission Valley FCCLA ! Our chapter participated in the State Leadership Conference virtually on April 11 & 12. Karlyn Gustin was officially voted in by Kansas as a National Officer Candidate. She will go through the election process in Nashville, TN this summer. State STAR Event Results: Mission Valley has five National STAR Event Qualifiers: Megan Deters, Paige Sims, Kiki Widau, Clara Johnston, and Karlyn Gustin who will compete in Nashville this summer. Athena White earned bronze on her state project. Mission Valley won the State STAR Award for highest percentage of our chapter competing at the state level. (We had previously won the same award for District D). Megan Deters and Paige Sims each won two Kansas FCCLA Scholarships for their active participation in the organization. Megan won the Peer Education Scholarship and Leadership Scholarship. Paige won the Leadership Scholarship and the Alumni & Associates Scholarship. Our chapter earned Kansas Community Service Runner-Up for our "Vikings Mask Up to Take Down Covid" project, in which we made over 80 masks for staff members last August. Amy Johnston was named the Kansas FCCLA Administrator of the Year for upholding and supporting the values of FCCLA, such as family, community and servant leadership. (We received her plaque yesterday and are planning to present her plaque to her on Monday). Mrs. Bergin was nominated by students and was named the Kansas Chapter Adviser of the Year. She also completed the requirements to graduate from "Adviser Academy" this summer. This was a four-month training program from National FCCLA to become a stronger adviser.
