The main purpose of DECA is to develop future leaders for marketing and dis- tribution. In addition, it stresses the de- velopment of occupational understand- ing, civic consciousness and social poise. Students learn through the DE class taught at CHS and on-the-job experience. Conferences are held at which participants meet students from other DECA chapters. Members of the Cooperative Office Education class may join COBRA, the Cooperative Office, Business, and Re- ceptionaist Association. This system is similar to DECA in that the afternoons are spent Working at a local business after morning classes. Club projects to benefit the school and community are discussed at the meetings. The primary purposes of COBRA are to develop progressive leadership and to provide good public' relations with community businessmen.
