Leading the way to state, KCHS business students earn regional awards

The future looks bright for business students at Knox Central High School as they advance to the state conference in the annual Future Business Leaders of America competition.

Eleven students walked across the stage at Eastern Kentucky University on Thursday, March 10, earning regional awards for their performance in several business-themed individual and team events.  The students now have an opportunity to make revisions to their projects and study harder in preparation for the state competition to be held in April.
