Program Requirements

All students must attend monthly FBLA (Future Business Leaders of America) Chapter meetings. These meetings are usually held the first Thursday of each month before school to accommodate football and other sports.
Freshman, Sophomores, and Juniors must complete activities to earn their Future, Business or Leader award. These activities are self-pacing and online.
Sophomores, Juniors and Seniors must compete in the FBLA section competition. This is usually a Saturday in February.
Sophomores, Juniors and Seniors must attend the UCI speaker series. Students will be assigned an evening based on their grade level and the speakers schedule.
Students who become officers will have the opportunity to attend additional training events and conferences.

*Incoming Freshmen should take Frosh Success and Health in the summer so that their schedule allows room for 2 semester business classes during their 9th grade year. Fees for summer school will be available on the web site.
