The Putnam County FCCLA competed at Regional STAR (Students Taking Action for Recognition) Events on February 11th, 2014 with much success. The Putnam County FCCLA had five members who created various projects for judging at Region 3 competition in Salisbury, MO. The events span various areas related to Family and Consumer Sciences. These projects are rigorous and require hours of preparation that, for some of the students, is done outside of class. Students develop a range of items including speeches, research portfolios, and oral presentations. It allows students to develop oral and written communication in areas of personal interest. The Putnam County FCCLA also had several students who helped judge at Regional STAR Events.
Students competed against other FCCLA members across the northeast corner of the state. Students can receive gold, silver, or bronze based on the scoring of their projects at regional competition. Three students who competed received 1st place in their event and a Gold rating at regional competition, which qualified them all to move on to the State STAR events.
The following students advanced to the 2013 State STAR events:
Illustrated Talk – Christian B.
Career Investigation – Brooke R.
Sports and Nutrition – Kaisee P.
The 2014 State STAR events are being held March 30th – 1th in Columbia, MO. Students will continue to improve their projects in hopes of qualifying for the National STAR events in San Antonio, TX. These FCCLA members will represent Putnam County in the best way. Congratulations on all your hard work and good luck at state!
