Charles Hill Assistant Principal

The students in the General Business class have been assigned a research project that requires them to interview a local entrepreneur. The students are teaming about the steps in starting small businesses. I feel it will be very valuable for them to learn about our local small businesses and how they came to be.

At any time during the interview, please feel free to tell the student you do not wish to answer the question or that you cannot answer the question. The students will be instructed to leave it blank. If you do not wish to be interviewed because you are extremely busy, we understand. There are many local entrepreneurs from which the students can choose.

The information the students obtain will only be shared with classmates. They will also use it as they design a business plan for a business they might like to start someday.

If you have any questions about this project please contact me at ELCO I-Egh School at 866-7447. Thank you for your time.

Sincerely,

Mrs. Holly Hartman
