A box full of Valentines to give to the Fremont staff.

The Fremont Future Business Leaders of America wanted to thank the middle school staff for all the work they have done this year. They did this by handcrafting Valentines with a sweet treat and a thank you message on it. FBLA members delivered them to all of the teachers and staff by placing them in their boxes. Students did this on Thursday to ensure that the staff got them before Valentine’s Day.

Zoey Godfrey, a participant in the project and eighth-grader at Fremont Middle School, thinks it is very important to thank the Fremont staff. 

She said, “They help us learn and do so much for us. They also encourage us to try new things and prepare us for all the new possibilities that come our way.”

This small act of kindness could make a huge difference. The staff at Fremont has been going through a lot with COVID-19, and FBLA wanted to try to brighten up the day for the staff.

“No economic system is perfect. But the American Free Enterprise system has empowered millions of people in the past. I know, because I saw it with my own eyes.” Marco Rubio, United States Senator, and many others believe in the American Free Enterprise system. American Enterprise Day is celebrated on November 15 every year.

President Jimmy Carter first announced American Enterprise Day in 1980 to honor the system that constitutes the foundation of the United States economy. It is a day that signifies the freedoms granted to American citizens under the free enterprise system. The free enterprise system is the motivation behind capitalism. It gives each American the right to make their own economic choices. American citizens are allowed the right to control their own businesses. The free enterprise system also allows supply and demand, which dictates the price of products. When supply is low, the demand is high. This is another one of the characteristics of the American free enterprise system.

The American Free Enterprise system also gives American citizens the right to entrepreneurship. This means that all Americans have the right to start their own business, create partnerships with other businesses, and to choose their occupation. Overall, the American Free Enterprise system allows American citizens to choose their own futures. Please take a moment today to appreciate our freedom!
