Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA) is the premier career and technical student organization preparing students for success in life.  The high school division has 215,000 members. Exclusive membership and career recognition are designed for each division to provide additional personal and chapter development opportunities.

Dunlap's student organization consists of freshmen through seniors who have a desire in the business field.  Students should sign up for FBLA if they are interested in any area of business, whether it would be Accounting, Marketing, Technology, Management, and more.  This year, we will be attending the FBLA state conference in Decatur, IL in March for the 4th consecutive year.

This year, FBLA will participate in the Dream Job Experience with the St. Louis Rams on Sunday, November 20th. More information to come. We also organize, promote, and sponsor the annual hot dog/chili supper. Our annual chili supper will be Friday, December 9th during the boys basketball home game vs. Washington.

To become a FBLA member and receive a membership card, dues are $11. Club t-shirts are $10. Dues and t-shirt money are due by Friday, September 30th. This club meets in Room F8.
