From The Vantage Point….
Vantage Early Childhood Education and Culinary Arts students competed in several contests during the Regional FCCLA contest at Vantage on Saturday, March 1, 2014 and six students earned the right to advance to the state competition.
The Culinary Arts Meeting Event Set-up Team is headed to Columbus for the state competition. Team members David Fisher (Paulding), Derek Foy (Continental), and Zach Wilkes (Paulding) joined forces to prepare a meeting room according to a Banquet Event Order that meets industry standards and anticipates guest needs within the specified time.
Three senior Early Childhood Education students are also heading to Columbus. The Early Childhood Team of Asia Flinn (Antwerp), Andrea Longwell (Ft. Jennings), and Bethany Dunderman (Antwerp) earned the gold medal plaque for their work. In this contest, the team was required to plan a 2 hour and 30 minute block of lesson plans and graphics which revolved around the theme of “Farm Animals”. Asia said she is “really excited” about competing in Columbus. Bethany added, “We worked really hard and our proud of our accomplishment.”
FCCLA state contests begin April 23, 2014 in Columbus. Congratulations and Good Luck to all student competitors!
