The Frenship High School DECA team competed at Lubbock Cooper High School against schools from around the region last Thursday, January 16. The competition included role-plays concerning real-life business situations, research papers, business, marketing and finance testing as well as presentations. Out of the forty-one students who competed, all forty-one will advance to the state competition in Fort Worth, Texas.

 

The organization is defined through the use of four attributes:

The DECA program at FHS prepares emerging leaders and entrepreneurs in marketing, finance, hospitality and management. Last year, more than 30 students qualified for the state competition with one student advancing the national competition. 

 

Freshmen, sophomores, juniors and seniors in the program will travel to the state competition at the Sheraton Convention Center in Fort Worth on February 20-22 where over 4,800 students and advisors will compete to advance to ICDC, the national DECA competition. This year the national competition will be in Nashville, Tennessee in April 2020.

Frenship DECA has a long history of student success. The program sees students land spots in the state, national and international competitions. Congratulations to all forty-one students who are headed to the state competition!
