Irene-Wakonda FCCLA to Serve Concessions as Fundraiser for Santa Shack!

FCCLA is the only in-school student organization with the family as its central focus. FCCLA stands for Family, Career and Community Leaders of America. FCCLA is a career and technical student organization that functions as an integral part of the Family and Consumer Sciences education curriculum. It operates within the school system and it provides opportunities for active student participation at local, state, and national levels.

There are many different ways to participate in FCCLA: community service, STAR event (competitive events), becoming a state officer, and attending state and national meetings. This year the Irene-Wakonda FCCLA chapter will be bringing 6 students to the National Cluster meeting in Phoenix, AZ, this November.

We would like to thank our communities for all of the support they have shown us in the past. We are fundraising again this year. The 32nd Annual Santa Shack will be in Wakonda from 10-3, on Sunday, October 21. The FCCLA will be serving concessions from 10 -2 with a noon special consisting of soup, tavern and chips. The Wakonda Legion Auxiliary will be donating homemade pies to be sold by the slice as well. Please stop by and see us.

It’s that time of year again! The IW Music Department will be hosting a haunted house at the school again on October 19. We are looking for any donations to help with the event. If you have any tarps or Halloween decorations that may be useful please pm me and let me know. Thanks!!  Stacey Kirschenman
