As we wrap up our first semester of CEO, I couldn’t be more proud of how far these students have come.

In just a few short months, they launched and ran a badge business, welcomed more than 125 community members at our Meet & Greet, and learned directly from local leaders through 42 combined site visits and guest speaker experiences. They’ve already taken part in two inspiring Meet the Mentor Days and planned and executed our class business, FROST FEST, followed by honest reflection on what went well and what they hope to improve.

As we look ahead to second semester and the launch of their individual businesses, we’re excited to keep building connections. Join us for Coffee & Connect @ 7:30 a.m. this Monday, Dec 15 at Wisper
—we’d love to see you there.

First semester, thank you for the growth, the lessons, and the community that makes this possible. The best is yet to come.
