As the year is coming to an end, FBLA will have a change in officers for the upcoming 2019-2020 school year.
The officers for the 2018-2019 school year were Martin Lewis, president; Julia McIntyre, vice president; Claire Laune, secretary; Olivia Williams, treasurer; and Lexi Oetterer, reporter. These members were asked about how they liked being an officer, and if they had any advice for the upcoming officers.
"I have really enjoyed my time as an officer of FBLA,” Olivia commented. “FBLA is one of my favorite organizations at New Haven. I have participated in it since freshman year. I was so excited when I was elected as an officer last year. This year has been full of new experiences that FBLA has given to me. I am so grateful I was an officer!”
Martin’s advice is to “be ready to work. It's nice to be an officer of FBLA, but FBLA is an organization of all high school ages from freshmen to seniors. So, a lot of people will be looking up to you and asking you for a lot of advice. Be understanding and willing to help.”
In the April meeting, on Wednesday, the 10th, the members running for office positions gave speeches as to why they would be best. The voting opened later in the day and stayed open until noon on Friday, the 12th.
The new officers for the 2019-2020 school year are Caroline Otten, president; Natalie Pecaut, vice president; Lydia Otten, secretary; McKenzie Pecaut, treasurer; and Alexis Sidwell, reporter. The new members were asked why they wanted to be an officer and what they were hoping to accomplish next year.
“To get higher participation in district events and in the club. Also to help make the meetings run smoothly and efficiently,” said Lydia.
McKenzie replied, “I want to gain more experience on money management skills and wanted to help take charge.”
The new officers will be inducted into their positions at the May meeting on Wednesday, the 8th. Congratulations and good luck to the 2019-2020 FBLA officers!
