Knox County Career Center (KCCC) students in CollegeU-Business, Computer Network Technology, Digital Media & Software Development, and Pre-Professional Mentorship competed in the Business Professionals of America (BPA) State competition held at the Greater Columbus Convention Center in Columbus, Ohio on February 23.

BPA held their annual BPA State Leadership Conference Awards Ceremony on February 24 where 20 KCCC students were recognized as Top 10 finishers in the state of Ohio. Of those 20, eight students qualified for the BPA National Leadership Conference, which will be held in Nashville, Tennessee from May 6-10. To qualify for the BPA National Leadership Conference, students in individual events had to place in the Top 8, and students in team events had to place in the Top 3.

KCCC had eight students who qualified for the BPA National Leadership Conference. Sierra Shields (CollegeU-Business) finished in first place in Business Law and Ethics. Elizabeth Swartzentruber (CollegeU-Business) finished in second place in Advanced Spreadsheet Applications. Kale Oswalt (CollegeU-Business) finished in second place in Extemporaneous Speech. Logan Woolverton (Computer Network Technology) finished in second place in Server Administration Using Microsoft. Peyton Blakesley (CollegeU-Business) finished in fourth place in Integrated Office Applications. Ethan Kapper (Computer Network Technology) finished in fifth place in Server Administration Using Microsoft. Blake Spittle (Computer Network Technology) placed fifth in Computer Security. Zachary Taylor (CollegeU-Business) placed sixth in Banking and Finance.

KCCC also had twelve other students who placed in the Top 10 but did not qualify for nationals.

“We are extremely proud of our students who competed at the BPA State Leadership Conference. Knox County was under a Level 2 Snow Emergency, and KCCC was closed. Thank you to the parents who transported their own students down to Columbus to compete,” said Kathy Greenich, KCCC Superintendent.

Greenich added, “We’d also like to thank Tina Krosse, Ohio BPA State Advisor, and Patrick Schultz, BPA’s National CEO, for making it possible for the rest of our students to compete remotely. Without their help, our students would not have been able to compete for a chance to qualify for nationals.”
