Throughout the year, students enjoy learning from top business leaders, entrepreneurs, professional athletes and innovators. This creates an insight into real-world applications beyond school. Students have opportunities to ask in-depth questions from some of the top business leaders in the community. The calendar has consistently provided experiences for students to learn beyond the classroom.
