Rolling in Dough The Future Business Leaders of America are known throughout Cumber- land High School for selling donuts. On Friday mornings, everyone runs to get a sweet, savory Krispy Kreme donut for their ‘‘midday snack.” With the money made from selling donuts, the FBLA purchased various items for the business department. In 1979, they raised over $1,000.00 to buy a photocopy machine which is extensively used by the business stu- dents. In the fall of 1980, the club’s officers and some of its members, along with other counties, attended a workshop at Longwood College which helped each of them serve their club more fully and extend their leadership to their fellow members. 1.

ena Teachers’ Pet? No, the members of the National Honor Society aren’t teachers’ pets, but they do make the grades that teachers enjoy writing down in grade books and on report cards.

Who’s Who is an organization which honors high school juniors and seniors who have demonstrated leadership or achieve- ment in either academics, athletics, extra-curricular ac- tivities, or community service. An average of less than 5% of the juniors and seniors nationally are featured in Who’s Who each year. So, to be a Who, all you have to do is be smart, athletic, active, serving, or all of the above. 5. Dressed up for NHS Focus Week, Sonia Streat gets ready to teach U.S. History. 6.
