FHS students in Mrs. Aimar's Economics class presented their ideas for a small business. Students made connections to economic goals in a market economy and connected to specific entrepreneurial mindsets to create their business. They projected marginal costs and benefits of potential sales. All groups were collaborative and creative. Great job Economics Students!
