We're thrilled to celebrate an exceptional showing by our Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA) team at the recent Regional Competition in Westchester County District 3! Under the expert guidance of Ms. Jennifer Sousou, eleven talented students represented Roosevelt High School Early College Studies with distinction. The results speak for themselves.
Impressive Results
Of the eleven competitors, eight students placed in their events, including five first-place finishes. This achievement is particularly impressive given the caliber of schools in the competition.
