The Region 7 FCCLA Meeting was cancelled and regional officer applications and interviews were held virtually as well. The following Highlands FCCLA members will be serving as Region 7 Officers for the 2020-2021 year:
- Addy Wagner – President
- Katie Deshler – Vice President of Membership
- Cecilia Wira – Vice President of Public Relations
For the first time since Family, Career and Community Leaders of America (FCCLA) was founded in 1945, members competed in Students Taking Action with Recognition (STAR) Events on the national level virtually. Nearly 3,000 FCCLA members from across the country participated in STAR Events this past June.
The virtual conference was held July 7-10, 2020, and was a wonderful experience for all members involved. Ashley Coulter, Kentucky State Vice President for Community Service served on the Kentucky State Voting Delegate team. Two Kentucky members were elected as National FCCLA Officers to serve on a team of 10 for the 2020-2021 term.
