Children learn entrepreneurship through experiences, role-playing, and careful instruction.
This is an after-school and summer service project. Participants are middle school volunteers who are encouraged to maintain gardens and explore a variety of business enterprises. At Pahoa High and Intermediate School, computer applications are being incorporated into the various curricula in science, English, and social studies and at the middle school. Through this partnership, nontraditional students receive counseling, career path, work-based learning, and entrepreneurship experiences. In high school, participants are guided through the process of planning, creating, and operating a small business.
