At the Missouri Regional meeting in September, the Saline County Career Center DECA chapter was awarded and recognized with a 100+ Chapter member banner for 2023 membership. Missouri DECA awards chapters that gain 100 or more members via student, alumni, and professional membership to encourage membership throughout Missouri. SCCC DECA had 103 members by the end of the school year. It is the first time the chapter has earned recognition.
“This is a great time in our chapter’s history as our leadership team begins planning this month for November, recognized as DECA month by National DECA. Members will have several opportunities to travel, compete, network and expand their leadership skills this year.” -Kerry Henley, DECA Advisor
