(Canastota, NY – Dec. 2013) Canastota High School’s FBLA (Future Business Leaders of America) was proud to host the 2013 Legacy Now Workshop on Tuesday, Nov. 26. Members of FBLA served as facilitators for the annual event. The members planned the event that was offered to ninth graders and also facilitated during the workshop. This is the seventh year that Canastota High School FBLA has worked with Legacy Now to host the annual event.
Legacy Now provides students with the opportunity to attend workshops, seminars, and participate in character building activities that drive them to have a better outlook on their education and on life in general. By participating in these workshops, attitudes such as negativity, disrespect, and laziness are eliminated.
Legacy Now presenters, Gary Ford and Dr. Pete Tamburro worked with the district to establish the goals for this year’s program. Together, they spent the day promoting leadership and significance in an effort to provide a positive environment in the CanastotaSchool District. Canastota High School Principal Molly Mecca and Assistant Principal Chris Rogers also participated in the event sharing their goals with the students in attendance.
Ninth grade students volunteered to attend the conference. Fifty members of the Class of 2017 took advantage of this outstanding opportunity. Canastota Cares represents the goals of the Character Education Committee at CHS stressing the principles of character, action, respect, empathy, and service.
