Local Student Makes History by Qualifying for FCCLA National Leadership Conference
By Kate Stock & Erin Hynes
Family, Career and Community Leaders of America (FCCLA) is a student organization that helps young people develop leadership skills, prepare for careers, and make a difference in their communities. One of the most exciting parts of FCCLA is the STAR (Students Taking Action with Recognition) events, where members compete in different categories to showcase their talents and hard work.
One type of competition is the Online STAR Events, where students create and submit digital projects. The Chapter Website STAR Event challenges members to design a website highlighting their school’s FCCLA chapter, including its activities, goals, and achievements.
This year, Quinn Ross made history by becoming the first student in Elmwood-Murdock FCCLA Chapter history to qualify for the FCCLA National Leadership Conference (NLC) in the Chapter Website STAR Event! Their website stood out for its creativity, design, and detailed information, earning them a spot in the national competition.
The National Leadership Conference will take place this summer in Orlando, FL, where students from all over the country will gather to compete, learn, and grow as leaders. We are incredibly proud of Quinn for this amazing accomplishment and wish her the best of luck at NLC!

The meetings are held at the new Village Board office located at the Learning Center on the south side of town.
Official agendas are posted the day before at the Post Office, Gas Station, and Village Office. Prior to the posting of the agenda, meeting items can be added to the meeting. At the end of each meeting is a Public Comment Section. Attendees have three minutes to speak about anything at this time. Further discussion on the topic can then be added to the next board meeting.
