Sales and Marketing students have the opportunity to compete against students both locally and internationally in exercises developed to challenge their newfound skills. DECA is co-curricular and designed to increase a student’s understanding of marketing principals, leadership skills, personal and professional development. Skills and knowledge learned in class are put into practice through the student-driven school based enterprise, Bodega Gift and Snack Shop. Field trips, guest speakers and an annual fashion show expose students to real world examples. Students obtain college credit through articulation agreements with Mott College, Baker College, Delta College and Northwood University. This program gives its students interested in Sales and Marketing a money saving head start into college.
