Youth Entrepreneurs
We are more than a lesson from a textbook — “YOU ARE CAPABLE OF SO MUCH MORE THAN YOU THINK.”
We believe education is about nurturing, inspiring and empowering our students through hands-on learning. South Pointe Junior High does this in a FANTASTIC way! We have partnered with Youth Entrepreneurs to bring our students a one-of-a-kind learning experience where they develop the seven key principles of an entrepreneur.
With Youth Entrepreneurs, we “focus on the application of an idea — an idea students can own. Our curriculum brings business studies to life through experiential learning, executed in real, market-based scenarios. We introduce economic thinking and strive to instill the moral character necessary for our youth to lead lives as thriving, productive citizens” (youthentrepreneurs.org).
