The Chadron State College Business Academy hosted its ninth annual Best of the West Business Competition on Wednesday, January 28, welcoming 173 students from eight Nebraska high schools. Competitors tested their skills in a wide range of business-related events, including Agribusiness, Accounting, Business Calculations, Business Communications, Economics, Introduction to Business, Introduction to FBLA, Introduction to Financial Mathematics, Job Interview, Marketing, and Personal Finance.
Hay Springs Public Schools was proudly represented by nine students this year, and three earned top-five finishes in their events:
-1st Place — Introduction to Business – Easton Mintken
-2nd Place — Introduction to Financial Mathematics – Jacob Dorshorst
-3rd Place — Introduction to Agribusiness – Braydon Heiting
The contest, co-sponsored by Chadron State College and the Nebraska Council on Economic Education (NCEE) follows Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA) competitive guidelines and serves as valuable preparation for the upcoming FBLA State Leadership Conference.
We are proud of our students for their hard work, professionalism, and outstanding performance!
