East Marketing Students
Seek Learning
Outside the Classroom

DECA is a world-wide organization for high school and college marketing students.  The sponsor for the East High chapter is Marketing teacher, Mrs. Susan Schutte.

Mrs. Schutte will be making a presentation at this year's Central Region Leadership Conference in Kansas City in November and, knowing that they would benefit by attending the conference, would like to take several of her students with her.

While the Akron Public Schools will pay for Mrs. Schutte's travel, there are no such provisions to cover the students' expenses.   Therefore, the students decided raise the money necessary for the two-day trip on their own.

As part of their fund-raising effort, the students have started a Go Fund Me account.   Any and all contributions will be greatly appreciated.

At the conference, East Marketing students will have the opportunity to attend learning labs, visit exhibits offering college and career information, get tips on enhancing their own chapter, and have the opportunity to network with 1,800 members of DECA chapters from around the central region.
