Student
Organization 
As club members, students can develop their leadership skills; compete at local, state and national levels; travel, and have lots of fun! Club activities include officer elections, meetings, fundraisers, service projects and social events. Career-technical student organizations are a wonderful way to build a resume while meeting new friends and having a great time. All Early Childhood Education students are members of Family
Career and Community Leaders of America (FCCLA). |
