Student Enterprises
The Student Enterprise Program at Westwood School
Westwood School’s Student Enterprise Program is open to students in grades 5 and 6. Program benefits include:
- Rigorous entrepreneurial programming designed by the University of Cincinnati
- Access to local businesses and business leaders to learn about entrepreneurship first hand
- Research, creation and execution of business plans that lead to student-run businesses at Westwood School
- Partnerships with area businesses in the Westwood Community
As students work through the business start-up process, they gain resume-building skills applicable to a variety of careers. Just as important, they feel invested and empowered in their education and their futures. The experience of a Westwood School education will serve students for a lifetime, no matter what career path they pursue.
The Future Is Waiting. But We’re Not.
Student growth and business development are the foundational elements of the Student Enterprise focus at Westwood School. Partnerships with local and regional businesses allow students to gain valuable mentors who help them apply what they learn in the real world. In addition, the community and its diverse stakeholders have ongoing opportunities to help celebrate the growth and support the businesses of our Westwood students.
