Not only will the seniors participate in the FBLA nationals, the duo also earned a trip earlier this year to the nationals in debate and competitive drama- a rare feat.

“It was a lot of fun and an amazing experience,” Paxton said, talking about the FBLA finish. “It took a lot of hard work and research.”

FBLA nationals are in Chicago June 29-July 2 and the National Speech & Debate Tournament is in Dallas June 14-19.

“This has been a really successful year for us,” Paxton said, “but hopefully, we’re not done!”
