The DECA Club at Whitewater High continues to make news in Georgia. The latest honor for the club came in October with the election of Krystin Glover, marketing teacher and DECA advisor, as president-elect of the Georgia DECA Board, Inc.

Glover will spend this year training and shadowing the current president and then will take over the reins as head of the board next October. She will serve as president for a two-year term, presiding over a five-member elected board and six ex-officio members. Previously, Glover served on the board as the Western Region Director.

DECA is an association for marketing education students. It represents the program of student activity known as co-curricular, rather than extracurricular, since DECA activities are designed to reinforce the competencies taught in marketing and management.

The DECA Board is a policy-making group overseeing all functions of Georgia DECA.
