Carly Russo, DBHS Science teacher, was selected to be the next State Advisor.

 


HOW WE GOT STARTED: The Technology Student Association (TSA) was founded in 1978. For over thirty years, students around the country competed in technology related events, except for California.  Four years ago, Alice Jin (c/o 2014) contacted TSA and inquired how to start the club.  Diamond Bar High School became the first chartered chapter in the state. Since then, the number of schools involved has double each year.  The first two State conferences were held at DBHS planned by the state officers which were all students from our school.  This past state conference was held in Bakersfield where four of the six state officers elected are from DBHS.  For the past two years, DBHS has been the only California chapter to compete at the National TSA conference where our students have had the opportunity to lead students from New York, Germany and Turkey in a discussion about how to grow state participation.  DBHS has been integral in the expansion of TSA in California.
