It’s more then just starting a business
Entrepreneurship is a valuable skill for teens to develop, yet it is also a skill that few students get to experience, especially within the confines of a classroom. Even for students who attend high schools with business classes, they rarely have the opportunity of building and launching their own business. Through entrepreneurship, students are learning creative thinking, problem solving, financial savvy, and other critical life skills that prepare them for the future.
