Last week, the Frenship High School DECA team competed at the LCU campus against schools from around the region. The competition included role plays concerning real-life business situations, research papers, business, marketing, and finance testing, and presentations.
DECA prepares emerging leaders and entrepreneurs for careers in marketing, finance, hospitality, and management in high schools and colleges around the globe. DECA is an integral component of classroom instruction providing classroom teachers with enriching educational programs and resources to enhance learning.
Out of the hundreds of students who competed from the district, 46 Frenship students will advance to the state competition in Houston, Texas. The state competition will take place at the Hilton America’s in Houston February 14-17, 2024, where over 4,800 students and advisors will compete to advance to ICDC, the international DECA competition. This year the national competition will be in Anaheim California in April.
Frenship DECA continues its history of success and looks forward to making the Frenship school district proud.
