Entrepreneurial Studies Department
Members
Tricia Kellison, Chair
Overview
In the Entrepreneurial Program, seventh grade girls have the unique opportunity to experience creating and running a business of their own. Working in small groups of 3-4 girls, students write business plans, request start-up capital from investors, receive funding for their companies, make product samples, manufacture inventory and sell their products or services to real-world customers. Drawing upon lessons learned in many aspects of the Girls’ Middle School curriculum, the girls learn firsthand the importance of creativity, teamwork, communication, consensus-building, personal responsibility and compromise as they experience the joys and frustrations of running their own businesses.
