DECA STUDENTS ON THEIR WAY TO STATES
Under the direction of marketing teacher Kevin Pascal, and co-adviser Anita Santangelo, 42 students who are members of DECA, an association of marketing students, at Pottstown High School participated in the 66th Annual District 8 Career Development Conference in King of Prussia. Of those, 24 students will be competing at the DECA state conference in Hershey. The competition involved students taking a 100 question content-based test and situational role play. Students’ role playing is judged on how well they adjust to the various business situations that are presented to them. The top six contestants in individual categories and the top four teams in team events move on to the state competition.
