ALPHA Jump- Congratulations to Sylvie Hattier who was chosen to move on to the Alpha Jump competition taking place at St. Ignatius on April 26.
On March 29, an in-school competition was held for the 7th and 8th grade students who chose to participate in our Alpha Jump elective. All students presented great business ideas, and we want to acknowledge and congratulate them on their work and entrepreneurial thinking.
The following business ideas were “pitched” to judges at our in-school competition:
Case of Blues - Nora Wagner
gift baskets for people who are experiencing tough times
FBL Kit Allie Murray
family baking and learning kit that can be used for all occasions
Fresh and Fragrant Merci Ewen, Kennedy Hailey, and Kate Harvey
hair products that do not have harmful chemicals
Sweella - Sylvie Hattier
sugar free candy
Terra Fall Candles and Scrubs- Jasmine Alex, Savannah Triggs, and Chino Nwoke
scented candles and scrubs for relaxation purposes
All students in grades 7+8 are encouraged to be part of Alpha Jump, an elective class, that helps students develop an interest in entrepreneurship. We are proud of the following students and the effort and time they have invested in creating a business model for their original products. Thank you, Mrs. Ricci, for a great job in coaching them.
Holy Week:As we head into Holy Week and prepare our hearts for Easter, we recall Jesus’ suffering, the last moments of his life, and his great sacrifice for us. We look forward to Easter and Jesus’ resurrection and the never-ending life he lives and shares with us now.
