The Laurel High School Career and Technical Center’s Business and Computer Technology scholars used their entrepreneurship skills to create a cereal company, and develop a marketing plan for their companies. Students used their desktop publishing and communication skills to create a professional presentation. Each student used critical thinking skills to create a cereal company, a model of the box, along with a thumbnail sketch of their company. Through this hands-on activity scholars received a look at how entrepreneurs get started in a business and the diligence it takes to market a new product.
