Hermann FCCLA officers recently spent the first days of summer preparing for an exciting year ahead at their annual Officer Retreat! 🎉
Officers Elliot Geers, Marissa Parr, Layla Frost, and Milo Lammert focused on leadership development, team building, chapter planning, and setting goals that will help guide Hermann FCCLA throughout the upcoming school year. They also gained valuable real-world experience by planning, shopping for, and preparing meals on a budget—all while enjoying some fun lake time together! ☀️🚤
A huge thank you to the Maczuk family and Monica for generously opening their beautiful lake home and providing the perfect setting for collaboration, growth, and connection. We also appreciate our dedicated officers and advisers for investing their time and energy into making this retreat a success.
The future is bright for Hermann FCCLA! With a shared vision, strong leadership, and a commitment to service, these students are ready to make a positive impact on their school and community in the year ahead.

This year, we were proud to have 16 schools participate in our Special Olympics event. Seeing so many students come together to compete, encourage one another, and celebrate their achievements made this year truly special. We are excited to continue growing this program and hope to welcome even more schools in the years ahead!
We would also like to thank all of the students who helped organize events and showed their enthusiasm and encouragement for their assigned buddies throughout the day. Your support, positivity, and school spirit helped make this event even more meaningful for everyone involved!
GCR-1 extends a VERY special thank you to Missy Ash for organizing this amazing event for the past 15 years. Her dedication, hard work, and passion for our students have made a lasting impact on countless lives. We are incredibly grateful for everything she has done to make this program such a success.
