We’ve spent the past several days in the classroom, and let’s just say… there has been A LOT happening behind the scenes.

We’ve been diving deep into our class business with brainstorming sessions, tough conversations, and a SWOT analysis (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats) to help us figure out what could make this business successful. The ideas have been flying, we’ve challenged each other, and we’ve started turning a lot of thoughts into an actual plan.

The best part? This business is entirely student-led. They will be making the decisions, creating the plan, figuring out how to market it, and ultimately making it happen. And the money they earn will directly benefit them as they launch their own individual businesses during second semester.

Each student in Silver Creek Area CEO has the opportunity to be granted up to $599 in seed money from our program to help get their individual business off the ground. So what they learn and earn through this class business now can have a real impact on what they build later.

We’re not quite ready to make the big announcement yet… but I can tell you this:

You’re going to want to see what they’ve come up with.

Stay tuned. We’ve got something pretty exciting in the works.
