Do you know what DECA is? 

No!  Well November is International DECA month so our local chapter will be sharing information about business and our organization all this month.

First so you know:  

DECA is an international student organization that gives OC students the opportunity to reach their career goals as business leaders and entrepreneurs.  Students across the globe compete in events related to their career goals and gain real world experience. This gives members a competitive edge over others in the fields of marketing, finance and management.  OC DECA provides students with a sense of purpose and the tools to be the best, giving us an experience unlike any other high school organization.     http://ochs.orecity.k12.or.us/activities/deca

 

From the Counseling Office – Two changes of information for students to notice.

1.  OSAC Scholarship Application does NOT open until Friday, November 23, 2012

It was supposed to be November 1, however, OSAC has had some difficulties with their technology.

So after Thanksgiving Dinner, have a good night's sleep and then begin on the application.

2.  FAFSA application cannot be pulled up until January 1, 2013

Students & parents have always before been able to start working on the application in the fall. However, this year we have been told it will be open to start on January 1 – technology problems?? You can have your 2011 W-2 forms ready and look at this year's application to see if you might have questions ahead of time when there is help available (see below).
