Last weekend, Frenship High School students competed in the SkillsUSA District 3 Leadership and Skills Competition. Students from photography, digital media communication, and law enforcement showed off their skills and secured numerous state advancements.  

Additionally, several Frenship students ran for district officer positions and gave speeches to their fellow SkillsUSA members to encourage votes. In the end, six Frenship students were elected as District 3 officers.  

The SkillsUSA sponsors at FHS were extremely proud of their students at the district competition. Every Frenship SkillsUSA team qualified for state in some way.  

“I could not be prouder of our students who represented FHS with honor and integrity and showed the Frenship Way in everything that they did,” said Samuel Soto, Frenship High School law Enforcement Teacher.
