Although he didn t make it any further, he claims that, It didn t matter, I had fun anyway . DECA is a national association of marketing education students with over 110,000 students competing in the competition nation-wide each year. DECA attracts students who are interested in preparing for entrepreneurial, marketing, or management careers. Students can join the DECA program by joining Mrs. Marescalchi Marketing class. While joining DECA is not mandatory for the class, it is strongly recommended.
Every student agrees that the class is fun and very interesting.
Mrs. Marescalchi makes class interesting and fun, it s the best of both worlds. A typical day in class involves class discussions, group work, and role plays in which each student is given a typical situation in the workplace, and must solve the problem in front of other classmates. The goals of the marketing class are to develop strong interpersonal skills, self-esteem, leadership capabilities, and the ability to communicate well with others. The DECA competition is held in January in which students from all over the north shore come together at the Danvers Ferncroft for a day of fun. The competition itself only has two parts, the role-plays, and the written test.
