Demerit Program

DECA Members

It is important that all DECA members actively participate in chapter activities. In an effort to strengthen the contributions of the DECA club, a demerit program will be enforced as follows:

3 demerits for an unexcused absence from a chapter meeting

3 demerits for not forming committees or assigning a chairperson

5 demerits for failure to behave in a professional manner (detention/ISS)

2 demerits for failure to adhere to PCHS or DECA dress code

Upon receiving 10 demerits, the member will receive a written warning from an advisor. A copy will be given to the officer, advisor, and student activities director.

Upon receiving 12 demerits, the member will be placed on a 4 weeks suspension (not able to participate in any DECA activities).

Upon receiving 15 demerits, the member will be asked by the advisor to resign his/her office and/or committee chair. Resignation should be made in writing within two days of request.

Upon receiving 16 demerits, the member will be removed from office and/or committee chair. The president will appoint with the approval of the executive council a replacement officer.

Upon receiving suspension, automated impeachment of position and will be placed on a 9 weeks suspension (not able to participate in any DECA activities).

Advisors and/or executive council reserve the right to amend the demerit system as needed. Officers will be notified in writing about any changes.

**Active advisors will assign demerits. Their decisions will be final.

My signature below indicates that I have been notified about the demerit program and indicates my willingness to abide by it.
