Some students who are not typically 'shiners' in the classroom were the brightest and most engaged learners during the market. They had purpose and real world connections. Some students have even discussed how owning their own businesses and going to post-secondary for business would be something they would love to do. HURRAH! The connection has been made. These were the students that, after the market day, stayed after school just to talk more about it. Normally, these are the students running out the door when the bell rings at the end of the day! GREAT to see all around engagement from our students. Even the students participating in the market as consumers were engaged and already started thinking about ways they too could be profitable next year. They ALREADY want to start working on their companies and building things. Pretty cool!
