My Students

We care about our futures! In this fiscally troubling time, our high school students are aware of personal debits, rising rent and housing prices, increased cost of living, and standstill in wages. In our career technical education pathway, students are learning skills on how to be young, hard-working entrepreneurs that will help benefit their financial futures.

As young entrepreneurs, we believe entrepreneurship will benefit and help improve our society, communities, and environment.

With a focus on human-centered design thinking, social entrepreneurship, sustainable thinking, and innovation, students are developing skills in how business opportunities and ideas can make a lasting positive impact. Students learn real-life skills that will set them to be successful, financially independent, and ethically responsible contributing members to society.

My Project

Our seniors have worked extremely hard in the last 4 years and have learned how to adapt quickly in this new learning setting. As they prepare to embark on their new journeys after high school, they are missing the normal pomp and circumstance that comes as a senior.

Let's bring a little celebration and special gift to our graduating seniors.

With this zero waste starter kit, they will be prepared to lower their waste in college, continue their positive impact to climate change, to the environment, and be fashionable at the same time.
