Warren, MI – De La Salle Collegiate High School DECA was recently awarded the Achievement Level Chapter for the 2024-2025 school year. The results were announced on decadirect.org. 

Each fall, DECA recognizes leading chapters that have built strong local programs focused on serving an exceptional number of members, advisors, alumni and business partners. These chapters and individuals dedicate their year to academic and career preparation, community service projects, membership recruitment, school outreach activities and other DECA-related endeavors. The chapter’s advisor and student leaders have demonstrated extraordinary commitment to DECA. 

DECA’s membership campaign is designed to help chapters grow by making the DECA experience available to more student members, keeping alumni involved and engaging professional members such as administrators, teachers, parents and business partners.

“We are incredibly proud and grateful for the outstanding dedication and effort that led to this DECA Achievement Level Campaign award.  Our students have been working tirelessly to win Districts and States and are having fun while doing it!,” said Dennis Koch, Advisor.

Of the 4,127 DECA chapters, only 1,000 chapters earned recognition in DECA’s chapter campaigns and only 1,214 chapters earned recognition in DECA’s membership campaign.

The DECA chapter advisor at De La Salle Collegiate High School is Dennis Koch.
