📈💡 FBLA Meeting Highlight! 💡📈
Today our Deep Creek Middle FBLA members had an amazing time learning the basics of investing with Chris Ferretti , Ashley Ferretti, and TJ Bartakke from Integrated Financial Partners (IFP) 🙌 We’re incredibly grateful to them for volunteering their time and sharing real-world knowledge that made finance fun and approachable.
From learning key investment concepts to testing their skills on a stock market simulator, our members loved the challenge of trying to grow their money 💰📊 (and maybe getting a little competitive 😄).
Thank you again for inspiring the next generation of business leaders, we can’t wait to build on what we learned today!

Ten amazing girls from DCM attended the "Girls for the Win" conference at the ATC in VB and had an unforgettable day! They listened to an inspiring motivational speaker, connected with women entrepreneurs, and met professionals from STEM fields across the board. The girls left energized, empowered, and excited about future possibilities.
Huge thanks to the organizers at Junior Achievement of Greater Hampton Roads and all the women who shared their stories, you helped spark confidence and curiosity in the next generation of leaders. Go DCM! 💪✨
