[DECA (previously known as Delta Epsilon Chi and Distributive Education Clubs of America) is an international association of high school and college students and teachers, according to Wikipedia.]
In recognition of National DECA month, the DHS DECA club reaffirmed their commitment to students focused on business education and pursuing a career in business, finance, marketing or entrepreneurship.
Along with Mrs. Stevenson, DECA club advisor and faculty member Claudia Gray, Technology Education Department Coordinator Jeromy Nelson and Principal Ellen Dunn joined the leadership team in celebration of their achievements.
