What is DECA?
- DECA is an organization where students can emerge into leaders, learn more about marketing and business, and find potential careers.
- We strive to prepare our members here at North to become academically prepared, community-oriented, and professionally responsible.
- We allow students to lead different parts of DECA and have a voice in the events we do. Each year a new officer team is elected by their chapter.
- DECA is a very respected organization with opportunities for scholarships, and real-world experiences. It provides valuable information and teaches important skills for your future.
