Congratulations Ty and Korbin!
Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA) brought together more than 12,000 students and academic advisers from 48 states and territories to McCormick Place in Chicago, from June 24 to July 2. Students attended learning sessions with industry leaders, elected a national student officer team, and competed, with more than 700 middle school students, 8200 high school students, and nearly 600 college students competing in a variety of national events. The National Leadership Conference is the culmination of students’ hard work over the previous academic year and an opportunity to showcase the skills and knowledge gained in the classroom.
Two students representing Dexter High School were in attendance, competing in Computer Game and Simulation Programming. Sophomore Ty Carmode and Freshman Korbin Williams performed a demonstration of their 80’s based computer game titled “Burrito Brawl” and explained the design, programming and challenges involved in this project.
