Who is responsible for governing the body of PA DECA?

The board of trustees is the entity responsible for governing the body of PA DECA. This group typically comprises individuals who have been elected or appointed to oversee the operations, strategic direction, and policies of the organization. Their roles may include ensuring that the organization adheres to its mission, setting budgets, and making decisions that affect the overall governance structure.

The local school board, the state legislature, and the national DECA committee do not directly oversee PA DECA. While the local school board may have some influence over local chapters and policies within schools, it does not govern PA DECA as a whole. The state legislature has jurisdiction over state laws but does not involve itself in the specific governance of student organizations. The national DECA committee oversees the national structure and programming but does not dictate the governance of state organizations like PA DECA. Therefore, the board of trustees plays a crucial role in leadership and governance within the state-level DECA framework.
