Help me give my students a year-long job experience. Each student will be trained in making coffee, tea, and lemonade, as well as handling money, developing communication skills, and delivering drinks or specialty items.

My Project
The LHS Lattes project will have a direct impact on the lives of many students. I teach high school special education, serving 9th-12th grade students, and a transitional program designed to develop job skills and life skills.
With your donations, I aim to incorporate the use of coffee and specialty products as a means to acquire various skills through hands-on experiences.
Each student will train in making coffee, tea, or lemonade. They will count money and make change using the cash box and a calculator (if needed). Students will stock items for making drinks, load the cart, and serve the drinks to customers. Each student will take orders. Students will clean up, take inventory, and shop for new supplies as needed.
The skills this project addresses are communication, following directions, counting money, time management, making lists for the store, taking orders, social skills, preparing drinks, delivering drinks, and cleaning up.
Besides learning new skills, my students will benefit from the proceeds by using the resale money to go on an end-of-the-school-year field trip of their choice, such as to the movies, bowling, or the theatre. This will help show students that we work to earn money and benefit by doing something special with it. The remaining funds will be used to replenish the coffee cart supplies. I have spoken with our school principal about fundraising and resale.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
