Program Description

In Marketing and Entrepreneurship, students will be creating virtual businesses that will compete with over 5,000 other student-driven virtual businesses around the world.  Their class period will be utilized to complete the daily tasks that are necessary to run a business.  Students will learn business and marketing basics. This includes all activities related to moving a product from manufacturer to final customer. Students gain realistic professional experience through membership in DECA, an international association of high school and college students studying marketing, management and entrepreneurship in business, finance, hospitality and marketing sales and service. DECA is co-curricular and designed to increase a student’s understanding of marketing principals, leadership skills, personal and professional development.  Skills and knowledge learned in class and through DECA are put into practice through the School Store: The Bodega Gift and Snack Shop. Field trips, guest speakers and Co-Op (work experiences) expose students to the "real world" of business and marketing.
