Locust Valley High School DECA club members competed in the regional competition at Plainview-Old Bethpage High School in December, with three earning a spot in the state competition in March.
Club members participated in role play events from a variety of career clusters including entrepreneurship, hospitality and tourism and marketing, where they had mere minutes to prepare a response to a business scenario. Students thought on their feet to provide a solution to the judges. Locust Valley junior Mia Lu and seniors Vito Ricciardi and Wyatt Thorgramson distinguished themselves in the regional and will spend the winter preparing for the state competition in Rochester this March.
