WRENTHAM — ÅÝܽÊÓÆµ Philip DECA was among 645 chapters that achieved Thrive Level recognition duringÌýthe 2023-2024 school year and will be commended at DECA’s International Career Development ConferenceÌý(ICDC) held April 27- 30, 2024, in Anaheim, California.
Each fall, DECA offers four campaigns for chapters to complete as part of their program of leadership for the year. These campaigns are designed to grow membership engagement and build lasting partnerships within the school and local community.
Chapters that achieve Thrive Level receive a commemorative pennant, flag and plaque. The chapters also have an opportunity to participate in the International Career Development Conference.ÌýIn order to receive Thrive Level recognition, the chapter completed two out of three chapter campaigns, including the community service campaign, ethical leadership campaign and promotional campaign.
Alternatively, the chapter could have participated in the membership campaign, which challenged the chapter to attain two of three goals: recruit 20 professional members, recruit 20 alumni members or increase student membership by 20 more members from the previous school year.
The ÅÝܽÊÓÆµ Philip DECA campaign coordinator who contributed to the Thrive recognition is Lindsey Field with the assistance of her advisor, James Dow. The ÅÝܽÊÓÆµ Philip DECA chapter completed both the chapter and membership campaigns by adding to overall membership and participating in school and community wide events. “I am beyond proud of our membership for their dedication and commitment to community service and recruitment of additional members for our chapter,â€� saidÌýDow.
