Each month, the Future Business Leaders of America chapter at Florence Middle School will be learning about different careers. In October, they visited Mayor Haddock, The Florence Lauderdale Tourism Center, our 911 and Emergency Management Center, the Florence City Schools Board of Education, and Krispy Kreme. Each location dedicated an entire day to welcoming our students! With an FBLA chapter that includes 177 students, we split into four different groups. Each group spent about an hour at each location before departing for the next visit!
In addition to the 5 businesses we toured, we also had lunch at Stanfield's in Ford City. Not only was lunch delicious, but the staff was friendly and welcoming! They were able to accommodate our entire group at once, which allowed for an enjoyable way to visit and share about all we were learning, as well as a nice break in the middle of the day.
