BUILD - Grades 9, 10, 11, 12
This experiential, entrepreneurship-based curriculum is designed to equip 9th-grade students with the skills needed to graduate from high school, and to succeed in college and their careers. BUILD will guide them through the process of planning, launching and running their own small business. The curriculum is built around a core of BUILD’s six “Spark Skills”: Communication, Collaboration, Innovation, Grit, Problem-Solving, Self-Management. This is a hands-on project-based curriculum that allows a student to think creatively and create his or her own projects. Each experience in the curriculum is designed to maximize a student’s development of these skills Along the way, students are taught to apply the skills they learn not only to the running of their businesses but also to their academics, career and life goals. BUILD E2 is an experiential curriculum designed to build on what students learned in their first year of BUILD E1, equipping students with the skills they need to be successful in high school, college, and career. Students will continue to build the brand of their business ideas while beginning to explore college and career options that match their individual skills and interests. This class meets after school as an 8th period.
