TRUMAN HIGH SCHOOL: DECA group welcomes the 'challenge'

Truman High School DECA is excited to bring you another year of the DECA Idea Challenge, a fast-paced experiential learning exercise that dares students to find an innovative new use for a common, everyday item in just eight days!

The item to be used in the challenge is rubber bands.

A premier event of Global Entrepreneurship Week (GEW), the competition is a fun and exciting opportunity for students to be imaginative and resourceful while learning about the entrepreneurial process. To participate our students must:

• Organize a team
• Generate an original use for the challenge item
• Create a video pitch of invention
• Submit entry online by the deadline

 The following are links to watch the videos of the winning projects from our marketing classes. Sara Sherazi, Alondra Casteneda, Da'kyra Mcghee Monk, CIndy Nyarko, Sylester Grant, Emily Conklin, Gabby Sanchez, Tiffany Timpf, Marrissa Johnson, Austin Gignac, Andrea Arrendando, Andrea Sauceda, and David Foca. 

We also participated in the Taylor Winterfest holiday parade. Truman and Kennedy DECA students, along with Truman class of 2019 walked with us and threw out candy to the community.
