Family, Career, and Community Leaders of America
FCCLA helps members build bridges among school, family, and the
community. The organization helps young people discover their
leadership strengths. No matter what you want to do, or who you
are, when you become part of FCCLA, you grow as a person.
You become more of what you want to be!
FCCLA Members participated in the School Tours at
the San Antonio Stock Show and Rodeo on
February 7th, 2008! We took Elementary students
from all across the San Antonio area on tours of the Rodeo!
We had lots of fun!
FCCLA, along with PALS and Student Council collected and
wrapped gifts for Blue Santa in December!
This is FCCLA's 2nd year doing this community service project
and we have been able to give Christmas gifts to over 150
students in our own school district!
FCCLA has also helped feed 5 SCUCISD Families
for Thanksgiving the past 3 years!
