The unusual amounts of snow in parts of Texas this weekend didn’t stop the dedicated students of Frenship’s DECA Program from participating in the state competition. FISD DECA members joined students from across our state during the Texas Career Development Conference in Dallas. Frenship had stellar performances resulting in 18 winners and eight alternates despite the challenges faced due to Mother Nature’s wintery bite.
The following members will represent FISD at the national competition in Orlando, Florida this April. Congratulations to all the students that participated and represented Frenship so well not only during the competition but throughout your trip.
