F TA Care s About Tomorrow FTA stood for more than Future Teachers of America. lt stood for hard working, dedicated young peo- ple who proved themselves worthy. New sponsor Mrs. Laura Higgins stepped in and hit the ground run- ning. The club had a good reputa- tion and my goal was to uphold it, Mrs. Higgins stated. In November FTA sponsored Teacher Appreciation Week. Members supplied goodies, baked by themselves, to the teachers' lounges each day during lunch. Special little gifts were given to teachers each morning. Members pulled together and made the week a huge success. Members brought home honors from the district IV convention in December. Derwin Youngblood, chapter president, was named District Mr. FTA. Amanda LaFleur and Melissa Bamsch won third place in seasonal bulletin board competi- tion. Charlene White took second place in educational bulletin board competition. The club also attended the state convention in Austin during the Spring. Derwin Youngblood com- peted for state Mr. FTA and a scholarship. Members sold carna- tions the week of February 6th through 10th and delivered them on Valentine's Day. FTA ended the year with a party to pat themselves on the back and let Mrs. Higgins know what a great job she had done. Charlene White puts the flnlshlng touches on her bulletin board for district competition. Mr. FTA, Derwin Youngblood, is con- gratulated by fellow club members. dps by
