2021 FBLA National Winners

After qualifying at the FBLA District and State competitions, Alexander Simes, Aryan Tiwari, and 2021 graduate, Tyler Goncalves, placed 3rd in the FBLA National competition in the Banking and Financial Systems event.  This particular event included a one-hour objective test where they had to place in the top 15 in the nation in order to qualify for the presentation competition round.  In this final round, Alex, Aryan, and Tyler were provided with a case study where they had 20 minutes to evaluate the case study, come up with a solution, and prepare a presentation.  Then they had seven minutes to present the case study and their solution to a panel of judges, who in turn asked follow up questions.  Congratulations Alex, Aryan, and Tyler!

The 2021 FBLA National competition included students from across the United Stated and nine additional countries.

CHS Student Named US Presidential Scholar

The U.S. Presidential Scholars Program was established in 1964 to recognize and honor some of our nation’s most distinguished graduating high school seniors. In 1979, the program was extended to recognize students who demonstrate exceptional talent in the visual, creative and performing arts. In 2015, the program was again extended to recognize students who demonstrate ability and accomplishment in career and technical education fields. Each year, up to 161 students are named as U.S. Presidential Scholars, one of the nation’s highest honors for high school students.

From nearly 3.6 million graduating high school seniors, over 6,500 students were identified as candidates in the U.S. Presidential Scholars Program.  Creekside is very proud to announce that Elyse Soracco was named a 2021 U.S. Presidential Scholar.
