Dear Grade 6 Parents/Guardians,
I hope this email finds you well. As Innovation Coordinator here at D-E, I’m excited to announce our participation in TREP$, short for “enTREPreneur$”, an educational entrepreneurial program for the sixth grade.
TREP$ is a nationally recognized, project-based learning program that teaches students how to start their own businesses. Projects are student-driven, and students learn all aspects of running a business: supply, marketing, finance, and more!
The culminating event is a marketplace on Wednesday, December 7, in which students sell their goods and services to students and families until 5:00 PM. All proceeds will be donated to a charity or nonprofit organization of their own choice.
We’re thrilled to be offering this opportunity to our young students. Please stay tuned for more information in the coming weeks, and I’m happy to answer any questions along the way.
Best,
Colleen Larionoff
