You’re Invited to Apprentice Day!
March 17, 2010
On Tuesday, March 17th the Senior Economics Classes will sponsor their annual “Apprentice Day” project. This class project is based upon the television show of the same name. Students are placed into groups for the sake of competition and assigned a task to accomplish. The project is designed to teach the seniors the many concepts and activities that go into running a business. The goal for each group is to raise as much money as they can and then donate the proceeds. In order to raise money, teams will be selling food, drinks, desserts and raffle tickets.
This year the proceeds will be going to Haiti to help rebuild an orphanage.
All are welcome to attend Apprentice Day.
Please come out and support their efforts by enjoying some great food and fun.
11:30 A.M. to 1 P.M.
