Arkansas DECA Recognitions
Congratulations to Mrs. Tiauna Young for being awarded the Arkansas ACTE New Teacher of the Year!
This award recognizes new CTE teachers who have made significant contributions toward innovative and unique career and technical education programs and shown a professional commitment early in their careers. Mrs. Young has demonstrated innovation in the classroom, commitment to her students and dedication to the improvement of CTE in all of her classes.
She has grown Pea Ridge DECA from
an inactive chapter to a prominent force within Arkansas DECA. In the four years of Mrs. Young’s leadership, Pea Ridge DECA has grown to 62 student members as of the 2019-2020 school year. In addition to the student chapter growth, Pea Ridge DECA has seen 37 students qualify to compete at DECA internationals and has 2 students who serve as state officers.
She has not only been a teacher to so many students, but she has also been their friend and it doesn’t stop there. She has opened her doors inside and outside of the classroom always helping whoever she can so they can reach their full potential. Mrs. Young is so deserving ofthis award and Arkansas DECA is so happy to have her!
