My Project

This project has been designed and created by students in my class. Our school mascot is a Camel, so we created the Cactus Cafe. This cafe is for junior high and high school students to be able to purchase lemonades, snacks, and treats before school and at lunch time.

The Cactus Cafe has been a hit!

But we need more resources and tools to help our business take off. Students are learning to count money, inventory, supply and demand, and other critical business skills. Thank you for a chance to keep this business alive for the students at my school.

The napkins and cups will help us plate a variety of great options for our students. The straws will be used for the teas and lemonades we serve. We also needed some decorations such as the cacti for the design and aesthetics of the cafe.
