Polk County High School's FBLA chapter was founded in 1973 as the PCHS Business Professionals of America (BPA). It wasn't until 2002 that our first FBLA chapter was founded.
Today, our FBLA chapter has more than 64 members and 3 advisers. We are a growing chapter and are very involved in our community. The goal of our chapter is to provide all students with the necessary skills it takes to be successful in the business world and help them make the most of every opportunity.
Our school is located at 7200 Highway 411 North in Benton, Tennessee. Currently, we have around 600 students and 45 teachers.
Our mission is to develop students into adults with accomplishments that attest to their intellectual discipline, curiosity, maturity, and responsibility by providing them with an environment that is conducive to learning.
While our school's chapter may be fairly new, we still like to take things seriously. Listed below are the dates of some important, upcoming events for our FBLA chapter.
