Shrewsbury High School DECA is the school's official DECA chapter. As a competitive business club we have members competing in events that cover all aspects of business such as Finance, Marketing, Entrepreneurship, Management, Tourism and Hospitality, and the list goes on! SHS DECA supports the development of these business skills in all our members to help us prepare to become future leaders and professionals.
As a new DECA chapter, we have demonstrated lots of success and growth over the past year. If you're interested in joining make sure to keep up with the Schoology updates in the beginning of the year! We meet on Wednesdays from 2-3 in the media center (M21oC) and our advisor is Mr. Andreola.
First year (2023): The Shrewsbury High School DECA Team was awarded a State Champion Excel Award for exemplifying tremendous teamwork, leadership and organizational skills. Shrewsbury High School students also earned both state and international awards including 5 state champions/finalists and 1 international finalist. Visit the Community Advocate to learn more about SHS DECA's first year achievements!
As a former business professional, Mr. Andreola was delighted to hear about how DECA promotes students' interest in business through competitive opportunities for the student body. Mr. Andreola agreed to be Shrewsbury DECA's advisor and it’s safe to say that the Shrewsbury DECA Chapter would not be the same without him. The student officers are grateful for Mr. Andreola’s support and dedication to the team. Mr. Andreola coaches students, meets frequently with the DECA state board, organizes conference logistics, and communicates with families, all of which have led to great success for SHS members.
Hey SHS DECA! My name is Fawwaz, and I'm a senior. This is my second year doing DECA, and I am one of the founders and co-presidents. I participate in numerous activites, such as Varsity Swim, NHS, and Cross Country. In my free time, I work at the Shrewsbury Credit Union, hang out with my friends & family, and eat Chick-Fil-A (Spicy Deluxe Meal w/ a milkshake). I can't wait to see what this year holds for us!
Hi SHS DECA! My name is Shiv, and I am a senior. I am one of the founders and co-president of the club. Outside of DECA, I play varsity soccer, have my own podcast, and run an entrepreneurship camp. In my free time I like to chill with friends & family and play ping pong. I am super excited for this school year and looking forward to another great year of DECA with you all!
Hi everyone! I’m Swathi, one of the founders and Vice President of SHS DECA! I’m a senior this year and I can’t wait for this year’s competitive season. In my free time, I spend my Saturdays eating $5 cardboard box pizza and talking to walls (#livelovespeechanddebate), work at Chick-fil-A (and eat waffle fries ofc), and like to spend time with my friends and family. I can’t wait to make more memories with the team this year and see all that we accomplish!
Hey everyone! I'm Shamika and I'm currently a senior at SHS. I had the most amazing time being a part of this club and I can't wait for you all to have the same experience! In my free time, I love to go on long bike rides with my sister, eat ice cream (Salted Carmel), and hang out with my friends. I'm currently working to make sure all of you have the right resources to suceed in your DECA journey. Can't wait to get to know all of you this year!
Hey Shrewsbury DECA! My name is Nuha and I'm a sophomore this year. This would be my second year in DECA (duh) and I currently work as the sponsorships director to make sure we don't go broke behind these ever-so-expensive competitions. In my free time, I do a lot of Speech and Debate, I enjoy baking (things that are often way outside of my skill level), do a lot of volunteering, and of course, I spend time with friends and family. I can't wait to meet all the new members and see what this year of DECA has in store for us!
