An Entrepreneurship Investigation Academy is coming to York July 14th-18th. This is a cooperative project between York Public Schools, the York Chamber of Commerce, YCDC, and the UNL Extension Office. We also have corporate sponsorship from Henderson State Bank, York State Bank, and Cornerstone Bank; with more to come in the next month or so.
YPS is excited to offer this academy that will serve 15 students that are currently in 5th-8th grades. We are reserving a few slots for our parochial school partners as well.
Students will learn what an entrepreneur is, interact with local entrepreneurs, devise their own business plan, create marketing materials, work on a production budget to include bank loans, create their products, and sell them at the July 18th Sidewalk Sales.
This academy fits our mission as we continue to search for meaningful and enriching activities for our students to participate in each summer. Stay tuned for more info to come in the next few months!
