More pictures from the FCCLA trip to Chicago.
FCCLA Students that earned 150 points for completing service projects throughout the school year, earned a field trip to Chicago. Students learned about the store IKEA, toured and shopped some great products, and their personal chef prepared an amazing spread of Swedish food for lunch. They wrapped up the day by visiting the Shedd Aquarium.
Throughout the day, our students received multiple compliments from hosts and staff who were impressed by their respectful behavior, positive attitudes, and engagement. One comment in particular stood out: “Your group was hands down the most pleasant group of teenagers we have ever had the pleasure of hosting here.”- Amy Dunn, Communications and Events Specialist, IKEA. We are incredibly proud of how our students conducted themselves and the lasting impression they made.
