DECA is going to be running a food drive from November 1 until the 25th. We will be collecting non-perishable food items (like canned goods) to donate to the hungry! We would really appreciate it if you could spread the word and get involved by gathering some canned goods to donate. Your contribution is appreciated!
Last year: We donated 600 items! Let's beat that number in 2024! Thank you!
Thank you to all that donated! This year was better than ever!
DECA HALLOWEEN
DECA members had a great time decorating pumpkins for the annual DECA Pumpkin Event. We also gave our treats to our Little Panthers Nursery School and our Special Education Department.
READ FOR THE RECORD
DECA participated in the Annual Read for the Record event this year, which will take place on October 22. The purpose of this event is to spread awareness of the importance of literacy among both adults and children throughout the United States. To do this, Jumpstart picks a book that everyone within the nation (regardless of age) can read at the same time. This year 15 members went to Hanover School to read to several classrooms.

DECA members worked hard this winter to donate 25 Blankets to the Chrysalis Center in Meriden! 2024
