Celebrating our FLA Class of 2024: ¡felicidades!

On May 29 we celebrated our Future Leaders Academy Barancik Scholars and their next step after high school. Celebration Day 2024 was held at the Manatee Performing Arts Center, and our students shared what awaits them after their graduation.

It was a joyful and inspiring event, and we are grateful to our Scholars for sharing their dreams and aspirations with our community, to our families for their support of their children's education, and to our sponsors for believing in our students. ¡Gracias to all!
