Washington Business Week will be held from February 24 - February 28 for all junior students (including Running Start Students). For one full and exciting week, students and some faculty members will be engaged in a non-traditional discovery learning experience called Washington Business Week. Running Start students who have questions about their involvement should contact either Ms. Greene or Ms. Ranger at Montesano High School.
Small “companies” of students will operate their own business for eight virtual quarters, solving the problems small businesses encounter with growth, production, and demand. Through our hands-on approach, students will gain a vision of how math, science, English, technology, history, art and other curriculum will apply to their life after high school. In turn, they may be more inclined to excel in these subjects once they have actually applied them to these “real life” situations.
