Highland FBLA members attended FBLA Day at Truman State University on Wednesday, October 16. They moved around the campus and interacted with other District 3 schools playing Business Bingo, The Prices Right and Shark Tank. Highland had a team place in both the Price is Right and Shark Tank.
Highland 8th graders were in St. Louis today to enjoy two Missouri treasures; the St. Louis Kaplan Feldman Holocaust Museum and the Missouri History Museum.
We heard many survivor testimonies, examined artfacts, and listened to a second generation survivor share her testimony.
At the MHM, we took in the 1904 St.Louis World's Fair exhibit and Missouri Through the Centuries exhibits.
The students represented Highland very well and we recieved numerous compliments throughout the day!
