Do you mean business? Come join the DECA business competition!
The DECA business club is gearing up for another fantastic season of fun and competition! Last year we took over fifty students to the Provincial competition in Toronto in February for two-days of competition and fun at the Sheraton Centre Hotel.
If you have a keen sense for business, marketing, advertising, or promotions of any sort of product, this club is the one for you! There are group categories for competition, as well as individual ones.
There is something for everyone, so consider joining us!
Please complete this Google Form indicating your preference for category and activity. Please note that you must choose either an oral or a written, you cannot choose both. Also, please note that you may not get your first choice! If you are considering working with a partner or group, please make sure you indicate the name(s) of the other individual(s) where this information is asked for on the form.
When we meet
Thursdays after school in Room 214.

Convocation Information
Dear Students of the Class of 2026,
All students born in 2008 have been invited to participate in the 2026 St. Benedict C.S.S. Convocation Ceremony, regardless of graduation status.
The St. Benedict C.S.S. 2026 Convocation date has been confirmed:
Our Convocation Ceremony is on Tuesday, June 9th, 2026 at Centre in the Square, Kitchener. Event will begin at 7:00pm.
CONVOCATION RSVP FORM Students, please complete the following RSVP form (ONLY your wcdsb email can access) to indicate your attendance for Convocation events and complete details. Read all the information carefully in the google form and submit as soon as possible.
SCHOOL CASH ONLINE: This week you will receive a school cash online invitation to pay the $80 convocation fee. The majority of this fee covers the rental of the facility, each student’s cap and gown, graph photo sitting fee and folder & composite.
SIGN LANGUAGE INTERPRETER: **Important note: If any of your guests require a sign language interpreter, please email Mrs. Garza at shane.pereiragarza@wcdsb.ca immediately to request.
GUEST TICKETS: This year the fee has been reduced as Centre in the Square is moving tickets to the box office. Tickets will be made available for purchase $5/ticket (plus box office fees). More information will be shared with students in March regarding how they can purchase their guest tickets (up to 4), including wheelchair and accessible seating.
Please do not contact the main office regarding tickets at this time.
We are so excited to celebrate this milestone with you. Stay tuned to announcements, your school email and the website https://stbenedict.wcdsb.ca/convocation-2026/ for more details.
Sincerely,
Your SBCSS Convocation Committee
