The week of April 24-28th ten members of the THS Honors Marketing program made the trip to Orlando, FL to attend the Marketing International Career Development Conference (ICDC). Three of these students (Lauren Ciulla, TJ Coughlin, and Kathleen Kauffman) were selected to attend a leadership academy and the remaining seven (Courtney Arison, Mark Curry, Stephen D’Amato, Brittany Kubicko, Jacob Robbins, Vlad Sychou, and Shravan Wadhwa) qualified at the state level to compete internationally. Over 15,000 student representatives from high schools throughout the United States, Canada, Puerto Rico, Spain, China and Guam competed in marketing related events.
