Welcome to Class!

Hello and welcome to your Entrepreneurship class! During this class, you will run a full-scale Jittery Joe's in Classic City High School. While doing so, we will learn about customer service, counting registers, health code compliance, and the risk and rewards of being a business owner.

During this class, you will do three total projects. These projects, as outlined on your syllabus, will make up 35 percent of your final grade. Answering your weekly blog question will count for 15 percent of your final grade. The other 50 percent will be: 25 percent for completing daily tasks at the coffee shop and two employee evaluations worth 12.5 percent each.

I am always more than glad to give you both paper and emailed copies of any materials needed, including your projects, rubrics and your syllabus. I require an email address for each of you to be made in the following manner:
firstnamelastname@gmail.com. This will help me email all of you efficiently. For example, petergriffin@gmail.com.

Any work that you turn in during the semester will be emailed to kscredon@gmail.com. This email address is reserved only for receiving and grading projects and will automatically save everything you send, in case something is ever lost. Paper copies are not accepted for this reason.

Your projects are also posted here so you can begin working. I suggest completing your projects early in the semester, as waiting until the last minute may cause you to lose points.

Good luck, and I look forward to a great semester with all of you!


Mrs. Scredon
