• Competitions at Leadership Conferences - Two Levels


    TSA State Leadership Conference, Montgomery, Alabama - April 15 & 16, 2025 (Tuesday, Wednesday)

    Students who wish to prepare for TSA events have the opportunity to participate in local class projects and will have the option to compete their chosen event/projects at the state leadership conference.  The LMS State attendance conference total cost is TBD based on how many commit to attending in November and covers the cost of the advisor chaperones for one overnight. Cost is per individual student and includes annual dues ($30 paid by Sept. 30), registration fee ($75), lodging ($190 split 3 or 4 per same sex room), and 2 lunches and 1 breakfast ($50). Registration includes a conference Tshirt, a pin, a certificate and any awards won. To be determined is the cost per student for roundtrip chartered bus transportation (TBD). If more than 10 LMS students attend, we will be able to lower the overall cost of the trip.
     
    TSA Conference Attire is the official TSA blue dress shirt and gray pants for boys, gray skirt/pants for girls, dark dress shoes, dark socks. For full details, see the TSA dress code website. An exception is that the State conference will allow white dress shirts (but then if you win and want to go to Nationals, you will need the official shirt or they will deduct points off your score.)
     
     
    Explore TSA websites (national and state) and refer any questions to TSA advisor, Mrs. Hearrington in Purple Pod, 112, or email her at jhearrington@madisoncity.k12.al.us.

    TSA National Leadership Conference, Gaylord Opryland Resort & Convention Center, Nashville, TN, June 27 - July 1, 2025

     
    Students who place at State in April will have the option to compete in the national leadership event in June. It would be a family-led trip for individual students with their families. Registration is usually $75, other costs include transportation, meals, and sometimes they require lodging for a minimum of two nights. Since it is within two hours of Nashville, we may not have this requirement this year. Parents and student will choose to stay at the national conference. It may be possible to go to the conference for just the day of the student's event. Mrs. Hearrington will assist in coordination with TSA National for families to register, but will not be chaperoning this conference. Individual families will determine their travel arrangements and chaperone their student at the national conference.
