DECA
Volunteer Judges Needed
DECA is a high school co-curricular organization that prepares future leaders in marketing, management, finance and entrepreneurship. Students work all year to prepare for a competition in which they will demonstrate their knowledge through real world simulation in role plays or written projects. We are looking for volunteers to judge our DECA District 3 competition being held over two days, Wednesday December 13th and Thursday December 14th at the Doubletree Hilton in Danvers. We are in need of judges to do either day or both days from 8 am until 1pm. We are also recruiting additional judges to read and evaluate the written presentations before the competition, this can be done even if you are unable to judge the day of the event! Please fill out this Google Form to sign up for a preferred date and Meghan, DECA District 3 Co-Advisor, will follow up with more details and preferences as to where you would like to judge. No experience is necessary, we will provide all the necessary information and instructions. Please reach out to a Masco DECA Advisor with any questions: Bryan Duplissie- bduplissie@masconomet.org; Jen Richard- jrichard@masconomet.org;
or Madison Estes- mestes@masconomet.org. Thank you in advance for your support!

Spanish Exchange
After a four year hiatus, a group of 24 students and two teachers have arrived from Colegio Santa Ana Huesca for our Spanish Exchange Program! The students are staying with host families throughout the Tri-Town who have graciously opened their homes and will be helping to show them the beauty of the North Shore. While at Masco they will be visiting Spanish classes, shadowing their exchange partners, and participating in various workshops offered by our teachers. In addition, they are visiting New York City, going on field trips to Cambridge and Boston, and attending a Celtics game, until they return home on November 18th. Students from Masco will travel to Huesca, Spain to reunite with their exchange partners in February.
