FBLA President Elizabeth Smith (continued)
Louisiana Member of the Month for November
Elizabeth has been an officer all of her years at RHS and she has earned her position as President through endless hours of
hard work and dedication to our chapter. She has earned her way through district and state competition to Nationals each year
and will no doubt do it again this year. This year Elizabeth will be competing in Accounting I and Accounting II, has developed
our school FBLA website, will be competing in Website Design, and has already started on our new Community Service
Project – honoring the local veterans of Desert Storm.
Elizabeth is well deserving of being selected member of the month for Louisiana for what she has accomplished during
October and November. She organized and planned the March of Dimes fundraiser, the CCA fund drive, the RPD gift baskets,
the veteran‘s appreciation gift, the RFD appreciation gift, Hot Halloween Happenings, and the Christmas Parade. If that wasn‘t
enough, she has already completed the initial planning of our chapter‘s first ever FBLA Awards Banquet that is scheduled for
April 27, 2012, at the Louisiana Army National Guard armory, to include coordinating the facilities and the catering.
Aside from her already busy schedule, Elizabeth has been the leader of the BAA program at RHS, and she has lead by example.
She was the first member at RHS to finish the Future, Business, and Leader Awards. She will soon be the first member
at RHS to earn the highest level of recognition - the America Award. As if that is not enough, Elizabeth also helped over 20
other members in their efforts to earn these awards, and is now assisting RJHS with implementing the MAP awards for the
middle level.
As the Louisiana FBLA November Member of the Month, Elizabeth will receive additional recognition at the Louisiana
FBLA State Conference and she is automatically qualified to attend the National Leadership Conference that will be held this
summer in San Antonio, Texas. The RHS chapter of FBLA appreciates all that Elizabeth does to make our chapter the best
chapter in the state. As is obvious by her selection as the Louisiana FBLA November Member of the Month, Elizabeth is appreciated
by the state chapter as well. As members of the Bearcat Nation, we should all congratulate her on receiving this outstanding
recognition.
