SJA Students attend Provincials

DECA is an international business competition. This year, we had 19 students registered for DECA Regionals, with many qualifying for DECA Provincials. At St. Jude’s we not only embrace a good challenge, we pursue it with passion. Our students engaged with this in a big way when 12 of them set-off to the Sheraton in downtown Toronto this February to compete against 6,500 other students in the DECA Provincials competition. Students competed in a variety of business arenas, including Finance, Marketing, Administration, Entrepreneurship and Travel & Tourism. We are proud of all our students as they represented SJA well, including several who came home with top-20 placements. Congratulations to Leah, Melia and Edward for their top-20 placements in Marketing, and to Sania for her top-10 placement in Entrepreneurship. This is just the beginning! We have already started preparing for next year! Forming new clusters, welcoming new students, and getting ready to show the world what happens when St. Jude’s students focus their minds and creativity on a goal.
