GO CHARGERS!
Brandon-Evansville students attended the Minnesota FCCLA Leadership Conference 4/7-4/9. Students attended general sessions with speaker Mike Donahue, Value Up; Rebekah Anderson, Envisioning student leadership; and Sheltered Reality that uses drums, music and choreography to demonstrate steps toward student success. The days were filled with students engaged in breakout sessions about Healthy Lifestyles, community service projects, seatbelt safety and ending the evenings with karaoke and dancing.
Shelby Jeppesen, Greta Fuglseth and Lauren Thoennes competed in STAR events and all earned scores in the Gold category (the highest possible). Greta and Lauren also received an invitation to compete at Nationals in the category of Repurpose and Redesign and Greta receiving an invitation to Nationals with her individual Leadership project.
Thank you to all families, community members, teachers and staff for supporting these students during fundraising, allowing them time to work on projects and encouraging their participation in FCCLA! ~ Mrs. Erin Okerlund, FCCLA Adviser

Members of the Brandon-Evansville Band & Choir traveled to Florida this past week. Not only did they perform at Disney Springs on Wednesday, 3/20, but also enjoyed the Disney parks, Atlantic Ocean at Cocoa Beach and Universal Studios.
Friday, 3/22 we packed all of our things, loaded them on the bus and headed out in the rain to Universal Studios! This park was action packed with Harry Potter, Dr Seuss, Avengers and Star Wars! It was nothing short of amazing!
