What we've done
What we've done
During our first year as a BPA Chapter at Rosemount, we had some pretty great achievements! There were a total of 10 members. John (Jeb) Blair, Grade 12, ran for Regional officer and won. He served as our Region 2 BPA president this year. We also had a problem with our former Region 2 host location (Century College) so Rosemount High School hosted the Region 2 competition back on Jan 8, 2022. It was really fun to see our RHS students feeling instantly part of the BPA community as hosts!
This year six Rosemount students qualified for State BPA in Mpls (regional results Jan 2022)
Siah Borbor Gr 9 (placed 2nd in Interview and 1st place Web Design Team)
Allison Boche Gr 10 placed 3rd in Interview and 1st in Web Design Team)
