My Project

Entrepreneurial experiences allow students to take charge of their career learning and helps them make choices that will guide them to be more successful in the employment world. Providing my students with these materials will enhance opportunities for them to create a school based enterprise and have cooperative education while including my self contained students in with the general education population.

My students thrive off of hands on experiences that engage them to be creative and use interpersonal skills and with these materials they will be able to gain a wide variety of employable skills that will help build their future endeavors.

The products that I have selected will help my students by giving them a wide variety of entrepreneurial experiences that they can take on for not only their future, but for our school as a whole. Providing them with a heat press, a sublimation printer, tumbler heat press, precision tools, vinyl, and other necessary items will help my students become more familiar with the enterprising world around us, while still working on career readiness skills they will need to be successful members of society.
