Membership in FBLA at Wilber-Clatonia High School involves those in grades 9-12 who want to develop a sense of respect, leadership, business ethics, and a commitment to being great that lasts forever beyond high school. Membership has grown tremendously over the past years, and will hopefully continue to grow. There are currently 270 students enrolled in junior high and high school. FBLA student class membership totals compared to class size are as follows:​

• 17 out of 43 in the class of 2019

• 21 out of 41 in the class of 2020

• 18 out of 45 in the class of 2021

• 16 out of 47 in the class of 2022

The FBLA organization at Wilber-Clatonia provides students with rewarding leadership opportunities, and the chance to further their knowledge in the business world. This can help them with their future career goals. The chapter strives to achieve greatness with everything that it does. The chapter as a whole, is actively involved in the school and community. With the strength of 86 committed and determined individuals, we have received many awards and honors. All 86 members have paid state and national dues.

Three years ago, Wilber-Clatonia activated a Middle Level Division chapter. This chapter was activated in the hopes of establishing a sense of connection between the middle school and high school extracurricular activities in relation to creating young business professionals. At the middle school level, other than sports, there are not many ways students can get involved. Chartering the Middle Level chapter helped students come to understand that volunteerism and helping out in the community at a young age is beneficial to increasing their future well-being. The Middle Level chapter at our school includes grades 7 and 8, and 15 students paid state and national dues to become members this year. After establishing a strong Middle Division, the officer team plans to expand the membership to the 5th and 6th graders as well.

Excitement is on the table as she brings in new ideas for Wilber-Clatonia FBLA and the school as well! The Wilber-Clatonia FBLA chapter meets on the second Monday of each month in the evening for their regular chapter meeting. The officer team meets on the first Friday of each month to prepare the agenda for the chapter meeting.
