Franklin High School’s FBLA students had an incredible showing at the NC FBLA State Leadership Conference and we are extremely proud of their accomplishments! 🏆 Timothy Bishop earned 1st Place in Public Speaking. Timothy’s speech impressed judges and audiences alike, showcasing outstanding preparation and confidence on stage. 🏆 Jaxon Stamey placed 1st in Introduction to Business Presentation. After his partner was unable to continue in FBLA, Jaxon stepped up to complete the entire presentation himself, even conducting a survey of students across all grade levels on AI usage to strengthen his research. 📘 Gold Seal Chapter Award – Congratulations to Owen Brooks, Summer Herndon, and Alexis Owen, who completed a detailed report highlighting Franklin High School FBLA’s accomplishments, competitions, and community service efforts. 🤝 Community Service Project – Top 10 Finish Addison Powell and Deyton Randall placed in the Top 10 for their Community Service Project, which included a comprehensive written report and presentation on FHS FBLA Christmas gift giving to MCH for almost three decades. 🗳 Student Leadership Achievement Gabriel Hopkins successfully campaigned and was elected Western Region Vice President for North Carolina FBLA, earning the support of a two-thirds majority vote. 👏 Advisor Recognition Franklin High School’s FBLA program was also recognized with Michelle Brooks as  NC FBLA Adviser of the Year and Regional Adviser of the Year honors. 🎉 National Leadership Conference Franklin High School will have eight FBLA members representing our school at the FBLA National Leadership Conference this summer.
