The French Club organized an event for students to decorate masks for Mardi Gras. Mardi Gras is a festive day celebrated in France on Shrove Tuesday (the Tuesday before Ash Wednesday), which marks the close of the pre-Lenten season. The French name Mardi Gras means Fat Tuesday, from the custom of using all the fats in the home before Lent in preparation for fasting and abstinence.

The event underscored our school’s commitment to leadership, innovation, and excellence, with our FBLA members Avery Chu, Andrew Cao, Jason Kha, Joshua Kim, Allen Li, and Dylan Minarto leading a workshop on Entrepreneurship showcasing the spirit of innovation our school embodies. Their efforts highlighted Rowland High School’s distinguished presence and contributed significantly to the event’s success. The LDI was further enhanced by a keynote on financial literacy by Mr. Chen, offering our students vital insights into an essential skill for tomorrow’s leaders. The conference provided interactive workshops and networking opportunities, aligning with FBLA’s mission to prepare members for leadership roles in business and STEM. This event was a testament to our students’ potential and a stepping stone towards their future successes, highlighting how Rowland High School is helping grow future leaders and creators. We look forward to the continued growth and accomplishments of our FBLA Chapter, and we are proud of their contributions to making the LDI a resounding success.
