WELCOME TO DECA!
Mountain Range DECA Apparel
DECA is an international association of high school students who study marketing, management and entrepreneurship in business, finance, hospitality and marketing sales and service. The Mountain Range High School DECA Chapter was formed when the school first opened in 2006. Since that time, the chapter has grown from 35 members to over 300 members and it is quickly becoming one of the premier co-curricular leadership organizations in the school.
The main focuses of our chapter include:
-
Learning business and marketing concepts in class and applying the concepts to ‘real world’ situations
-
Building skills that will help students transition from school to work
-
Giving back to the local and global community through service, and developing leadership skills
