Badger DECA members participated in the Wisconsin DECA Career Development Virtual Conference during the school day on Wednesday, March 3rd. These members have prepared for career-focused cluster tests, role-play scenarios and business proposals to go up against the best marketing and business students from around the state. They will be trying to advance to the International DECA Conference to be held in April.  

This is a reminder that Wisconsin students in grade 11 will be participating in the ACT with writing assessment. Our school is scheduled to take the ACT with writing on Tuesday, March 9. All students, in-person, virtual, and blended, should report to Badger at 7:40 am on March 9. In-person students will be notified of their rooms on Monday, March 8 during their 3rd hour class. Blended and virtual students will need to check in at the main office on March 9th to determine which room they will report to that day. At this time in-person assessment is the only viable method for the state assessments. The company who produces the test has no remote (virtual) testing option available. Proctored, on-site testing ensures standardized administration that includes equitable access to technology and optimal testing environments, test security, and validity.
