DECA SUCCESS. The student store general managers have certified our store as a Gold-Level SBE (school-based enterprise).  Clara Sun, Katie Freshwater, and Yarrow Cox will now compete at the International DECA competition in Atlanta at the end of April.  In order to obtain our gold-level status, these students had to meet certain business standards and create a 25-page operations and procedure manual, which was particularly impressive this year since they had to start from scratch.
