DECA is a non-traditional charter high school singularly focused on preparing first-generation urban students to go to college.
 

100% of our graduates go on to pursue higher education.

What distinguishes DECA from other urban high schools is the "we will go to college" mindset. Since the school's inception in 2003, DECA students have:

  • earned 4,500 college credit hours while in high school
  • earned $3.6 million in scholarships and grants
  • completed 14,000 volunteer service hours

An investment in our youth...
an investment in our community.

As prospective first generation college graduates, DECA students have unlimited ambition and untapped potential. DECA is a pipeline not only to Ohio colleges but also to the Ohio professional workforce.
