Park BPA takes care of Business at Regional Competition

January 13, 2009 • written by Cory Hunt

The Park High School Business Professionals of America did very well at their Region 2 competition on Thursday, January 8, 2009, at Century College.  The students have been preparing during 2nd term for this competition.  After leaving Park High School early in the morning, the BPA students attended an opening session before their entire day of competitions and other events. 

 

Events included areas in Financial Services, Administrative Support, Information Technology, and Management/Marketing/Human Resources. 

 

 After a full day, with over 200 participants and 9 different schools competing in various events, the students attended an awards ceremony.  Winners will move on to state competition in Minneapolis in mid-March.  Here are the results for the Park BPA students:
