What is DECA? DECA is a club for students interested in marketing, financing, and/or management. Students can participate in competitions within these categories against other students from all around. DECA is an international organization that contains about 250,000 students in grades 9-12. DECA helps prepare students for future jobs and careers. In the history of Mountain View, five students have got a top performer reward in State, and three students have gotten the performer reward in Internationals. Trophies and other awards can be seen in the trophy case on the wall outside of room E113. DECA meets on Tuesdays during lunch in room E113. Students can join at the beginning of the school year. The final deadline is the first week of October.
Why should you join DECA? DECA has a lot to offer. Students can choose from several different categories in Marketing, Finance, or Management to be able to compete in. Students will be able to develop better skills in these areas, which will be able to help prepare them for future jobs and careers. Many companies sponsor events that are related to their business which could help students land jobs in local areas. In the competitions that students participate in, there is a possibility of winning cash prizes and possibly even a scholarship. This year, we have a great group of officers.
