🎉 Congratulations to our State FBLA Qualifiers!
We are incredibly proud of all your hard work and accomplishments!
👏 Special shoutout to Kree, who placed 6th in Agribusiness!
While only the top 4 qualify for Nationals, Kree can submit his intent to remain on the “bump-up” list—meaning if anyone ahead of him drops, he could move up and earn a spot at Nationals. 🌟

HECTOR of the Week
JH - Toki Tummolo -Toki is a natural leader. We are excited that he has returned to Las Animas schools with positive energy. He is
very polite to his teachers. He goes above and beyond to help his classmates learn. Toki is a great example of HECTOR
and a great addition to our school community.
HS - Olivia Marfil has been a stronger student this year across the board. She stepped up as a captain of cheer and led the team and has continuously been on the finishing side of tasks. She takes initiative, works hard to learn, and completes tasks without extra pushing from her teachers or peers
Staff: Mr. Vigil He continues to grow lasting relationships with students. He is very supportive of those who come to him for help, giving his best effort to solve any issue. His positive personality and can-do attitude make working with Mr. Vigil a highlight to any day.
