What: DECA prepares emerging leaders and entrepreneurs for careers in marketing, finance, hospitality and management in high schools and colleges around the globe.
DECA meetings will be held once a month from 2:45-3:45 in Mrs. Simmons’ room. Through DECA, students will have the opportunity to apply what they have learned in class to a real-world setting. Throughout the year, there will be opportunities through DECA to attend leadership conferences, participate in community service, sharpen employability skills, become career ready, and participate in DECA competitions at the regional, state and national level. DECA is an internationally recognized association, and BMS DECA is a great way to learn about DECA before joining DECA at BHS.
