During my two years in FCCLA, my eyes have been opened to the various opportunities that are available through this organization. Whether it's getting ready for our project at state conference or helping raise money for Feed the Children, FCCLA has taught me that it only takes one person to make a difference.

FCCLA enhances my curriculum and allows the chapter to make an impact on our school environment. My students are proud of their accomplishments and so is the principal (that's who pays attention to what I help my students to do). My class would be just another elective, not an adventure in leadership.

FCCLA has done a lot for me. It has given me the ultimate leadership experience, has helped me gain more confidence, and has educated me a lot about life and how to deal with hardships. I must say it is an awesome package!

            Kapil G. M. – Glasgow Middle, Fairfax Co.

FCCLA has encouraged me to step up and be a leader, to be the leader of my life, and to inspire others. I'm aware of the qualities a student/employee should have. FCCLA has taught me respect, responsibility, planning, and more to prepare me for the “real world”.

        Katelin P. – 2009 graduate, Riverheads High, Augusta Co.

 

I have developed many skills through FCCLA such as improved self-esteem, better communication, a love for new adventures, and most importantly leadership abilities! Through FCCLA I have become my own individual and learned how to set an example and to make better choices for myself. Thanks, FCCLA!
