On February 6, NWCS students competed in the FBLA (Future Business Leaders of America) Conference. Their hard work, preparation and use of their God-given gifts and talents resulted in 26 trophies for individual and team events/tests. All 12 of our students in attendance qualified to advance to the state competition (must be in top six of each event). It’s a great testimony of the caliber of our teachers and academics at NWCS. Northwest Christian was one of the smaller schools of the 17 in attendance, with over half of the other schools bringing 20-55 students each, but excelled nonetheless.
