2020-2021 // End of Year Report
entrepreneurship as a force for learning
We started the year like most everyone else – unsure. Unsure of what the future held. Unsure of how much more teachers could hold. Unsure of what “success” would look like in a year where most students couldn’t run a business in the way they always had.
How would students work together from afar? How would they find connection with their community if they couldn’t actually share space with their community? Would they even care about running a business when so many big things were happening in the world around them?
We didn’t pretend to know the answers. Thankfully, we didn’t have to. It didn’t take long for students to remind us that even on the darkest of days, the entrepreneurial spirit is driven to create and connect. When students couldn’t easily make products, they made podcasts instead. And when they saw themselves and their friends struggling, they created opportunities to address self care and mental health. Despite the exhaustion and strain they seemed to carry, educators showed up for each other and for community events more than ever – airing their frustrations and fear, offering each other support and encouragement, and brainstorming ideas for more community support.
In a time where one might expect less connection, we saw many folks in our community lean in for more of it. We’ve been humbled to support classes this year as they’ve navigated this learning journey and will continue to reflect on the lessons that they have taught us – about relationships, resilience, and the entrepreneurial spirit.

CLASSROOM
SPOTLIGHTS
Seventy-one classrooms started businesses this year, using entrepreneurship to connect with their learning and community. We’ve spotlighted eight classrooms that have embodied the entrepreneurial spirit, turning challenges and obstacles into opportunities for learning and connection.
The third grade students behind the HTeCV Feel Good Company started the year online, navigating all the ups and downs of virtual learning. After noticing that a teacher was having a rough day, they brainstormed how they could help. They wrote down ideas of what their teacher could do to love herself and feel better, put them in a jar, and mailed it to her. The first Feel Good Jar was born – and these young entrepreneurs knew others could benefit, too.
In order to support others on their self-love journey, students started by exploring how to love themselves better. They connected with community members and mentors to learn more about self love and self care strategies, including an art therapist, fitness coaches, gem experts, dancers, sound healers, tapping experts, and a love language expert. They used these experiences and partnerships to develop their Feel Good Box, which includes an a Feel Good Jar,
HTeCV
Feel Good Company
a candle, chocolate, affirmation cards, and gemstones. After working with Mostly Angels – a nonprofit in Los Angeles – to develop their boxes, students were ready to hit the ground running. They promoted their business on social media and through online events, allowing them to spread their self love message (and
products!) all over the country. It was “a
great opportunity to be activists and
teach our community to love and
care for themselves. The first step
toward social justice is self-love,”
says teacher Candice Arancibia.
Students sold over 60 orders and
made $3000+ in profits, allowing
them to donate to several local causes.

The students of Wyoming307 Woodworkers had a somewhat unusual year - they actually spent nearly all of their time having classes in-person. As a result, they were able to really focus on the business - designing products, making community connections, and showing lots of entrepreneurial spirit.
Troy Reichert’s EdCorp functions like a group of independent contractors working under a joint umbrella. Each student designs and builds a product in either the woodshop, metal shop, or fab lab. Once it goes up on the website, that student is responsible for it – customer service, accounting, shipping and follow up. Students even include personalized thank you notes with each sale. Once their product has sold, they start a new one, and the process repeats.

Although students collaborate on products when it makes sense, the independent structure of the business keeps each student both honest and engaged. If something goes wrong, they’re responsible for fixing it. If a customer sends positive feedback, they get the glory. It’s a creative way for students to learn the real-world implications of running a business.
The business is located in a town
of just 1000 people, where there’s
a lot of pride in their community.
They joined the local chamber of
commerce this year, and much of
the local advertising is done by
word of mouth.

They took it very seriously knowing that their products were going to complete strangers who expected quality products. Their work ethic and desire to do their best improved drastically. Soft skills and organization were a major focus, and the kids' self-confidence grew as the year went along.

I think it gave them something that they could not get in any other class. Students were able to collaborate – this has been hard in other classes because we are teaching online and in-person so typically the teacher is behind a desk and the students are behind a computer. This allowed kids to get up and move, collaborate and get excited about their accomplishments.

In a year where most of the learning happened from home, the students behind BW Creations wasted no time in making their #workfromhome transition. They set up home offices, divided up their business equipment, and began making their products from their basements (literally!). Since September 2020, BW Creations has been coordinating most their business activities online, conducting meetings via Google Meet, hosting brainstorms and discussions on FlipGrid, and designing new sublimations products on Sawgrass.
With the support from teacher Kristy Frohligher, students harnessed their creativity, initiative, and STEAM skills to experiment with new business ideas – ranging from new products (like stickers, hand sanitizer keychains, and no-touch keys) to starting a TikTok (where students market their business). After appearing on another podcast, students decided to start their own – “Inspirations with Pod BW” – which features

interviews with young entrepreneurs, inside their classroom and beyond (like other EdCorps, Fan Faces and Eagle Street Marketplace!) Throughout the year, students
worked alongside other community members
and entrepreneurs to explore new production
techniques, source new equipment, and take
their business to the next level.
The students behind BW Creations
leaned into the entrepreneurs, making
the most of the moment and using the
opportunity to explore their ideas, spend
more time mentoring younger students and
expanding the reach of their business in the
community. After profiting over $4260 from
their product sales, students donated over
$1000 to the Homeless Children’s Education Fund.

After expanding to accommodate increasing interest in the program, the Entrepreneurship I and II classes drive all business activity at the newly remodeled STEM wing of the school. Year 1 students focus on learning the ropes and mass producing certain products, while Year 2 students focus their custom product line. Together, the team create tumblers, custom signage, and jewelry.
Students used Instagram to share photos of about the process, their products, and themselves. Their efforts paid off; the business shipped hundreds of products – both locally and across the country –and made over $4300 by the end of the year.
When there was an opportunity to collaborate on a full-scale campaign with their VoAg Floral Design class, the team went all in. From designing custom etched vases and floral arrangements to the

The students started out the year unsure of if they wanted to run a business or have a traditional classroom experience. There were a few times that I thought I would have to back out of EdCorps, or scale it way down. However, after much perseverance and determination, I was able to show the students the value of hard work. Once they realized what they would get out of the program, they were all in and worked hard the rest of the year!

Being able to see the entrepreneurial process from start to finish has been very interesting for us. It gave us a chance to experience business-to-business collaboration. We were able to give the vases a personal touch which gave us an edge over local retailers. The whole process, from arrangement
design to pricing, sales, and production has been an eye opening and rewarding experience.

TREVOR
“
I was disappointed when I found out that I would be working from home. Coming into class and contributing to the woodworking business is something that I looked forward to every day. However, little did I know, working from home opened the door for me to put my entrepreneurship and woodworking skills to the test. Outside of school, I knew of someone that needed a desk for virtual learning. So, I got together a budget, came up with a plan, gathered the materials, and started working. Eventually, one desk turned into two, which eventually turned into four desks total; before I knew it, I had a small business on my hands. I now enjoy building a variety of furniture for people and marketing it through social media and the Facebook marketplace. From my two years of experience in the engineering/woodworking class at Hixson High School, I have learned so much about the process of planning, designing, building, and selling. The woodworking business at Hixson High School has encouraged me to be an entrepreneur outside of school and, of course, prioritize safety when working with tools. I can't wait to see what amazing opportunities that I can take advantage of with the confidence and experience that I have gained from the Real World Scholars program.

Born from educator Jennifer Stillitano’s love of authentic learning and candle-making, Direlights has been “letting a little light in” since 2017. Promoting “personal well being, honest innovation, and hands-on education” through handmade soy candles, the students behind Direlights had to get creative their entrepreneurial journey with challenges like virtual learning and stay-at-home orders.
“This year proved to be a real, authentic problem that the DireLights team needed to solve. How do we pivot to be a fully online business and feel connected to each other even during full virtual learning?”
Pivoting required taking their business online – from the operations to their actual sales. Their first task was to create a website that was robust and engaging enough to be worthy of their hand-poured candles. Soon after launching, they held their first no-touch pick up day, safely handing off over $800 in candles. The sale boosted the team’s spirit, proving their business could continue to thrive.
Direlights
Meeting several times a week online, students worked together to develop social media campaigns and new products that supported causes they cared about. In one case, students created a Black History Month candle celebrating the diversity in their community, which they presented at The Black Entrepreneurship Summit at Cuesta College. In another case, students developed the Choose to List candle and campaign, which invited community members to share stories of times they felt listened to as a way to promote dialogue around well being, which they later later presented an Innovation Workshop at the California Association Students Leaders Conference.
Students used every opportunity to connect with the community in an authentic way and use their business to engage others in conversations around self care and mental health. By the end of the year, students had made almost two thousand dollars and supported the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation and the Paso Robles High School Black Student Union.

I actually felt that DireLights was my inspiration, my saving grace for this year. The students in this class gave me purpose and connection during distance and then hybrid learning. I feel like DireLights has grown positively this year because we were forced to get more digitally organized...we have a beautiful website now, we have added products to our self-care line, and we all had a lot of fun.

In a year that had students alternating between virtual and in-person learning, Busy Hawk Build took the opportunity to double down on the business essentials and build on the work that had been started, designing new products and branded packaging. The quality of their products "increased by 500%," says educator Matthew Barbercheck, adding that his students (and himself) gained a lot from the experience. Students offered products like phone stands, lap desks, and coasters, using Instagram and TikTok to reach more customers. Their efforts worked when engaging posts resulted in sold out products.
When students weren’t learning about mass production practices to keep up with orders, they spent time working on projects that better connected them with their community. In one case, a student who was on a passion project and reached out to a local lumberyard to

purchase the speciality wood. After hearing more about his project and business, the lumberyard gave him a discount and offered guidance to the project . In another case, students used some of their profits and spare time to turn hardwood into Michigan-shaped "Upper Peninsula" cut-outs, and then into items like clocks, which were donated to a local home for retired veterans.
Given the challenges of the year, Barbercheck says he hasn’t “given [the team] enough credit.” Not only were they able to run a successful business, students learned invaluable entrepreneurial lessons that will serve them, now matter what future opportunities come their way. After a year of navigating such real world challenges, Barbercheck is “more confident in [his] and students’ ability to take advantage of these opportunities”in the future.

In Waynesburg, there is a strong relationship between the IU1 Special Needs Campus and a local vo-tech school, Greene County CTC. When students began making custom cutting boards for their business last year, a few were given as gifts to CTC board members. News began to spread about Gryphon Student Enterprises, and soon other people were interested in collaborating with the business, which is entirely run by students in the digital fabrication lab. This was the case with the CTC Culinary teacher, who was looking for new cutting boards for their program. While the pandemic put the collaboration on hold for almost a year, this spring, students were finally able to complete a massive custom order – nearly $1000 of personalized cutting boards to be used both in the culinary program and as prizes for to annual Iron Chef competition.
Gryphon Student Enterprises
When the order was complete, there was a school ceremony held to present the boards to the CTC director, who voiced how impressed he was with the overall quality. The experience gave the students “a feeling of pride and accomplishment they likely wouldn’t have experienced otherwise,” says teacher John Kopp. Seeing their products in the hands of people in their community made an even bigger impact than they expected. SO much so, they’re excited to come back in the fall to “continue making products, expanding their reach, and interacting with more people.”

Seeing students take ownership and being proud of their creations was the most exciting outcome for me as the facilitator of this endeavor. I feel like moving forward, the confidence students will have to create their own small business would be much higher knowing they have some experience with what we did this year. I was able to see students be excited about coming to class and motivated because they were doing something "REAL" not just to learn an isolated skill. Students were proud of their work and creations.

The entrepreneurial process is a powerful way to bring relevance to any learning environment. We’re grateful to work with partners like Harbor Freight Tools for Schools and the Grable Foundation to support young people in targeted (educational) spaces and (geographical) places.
Since the first EdCorp began in the Greater Pittsburgh region in 2016, students, teachers, industry partners, community members, and foundations have worked together in creative ways so that students can use entrepreneurship to explore STEM, the arts, skilled trades, and social entrepreneurship, just to name a few.
The Pittsburgh region has always espoused creative collaboration, community awareness, and a bias toward giving back, while embodying a vibrant maker and entrepreneurial spirit. This year proved no different. In a time when school districts struggled to engage students, EdCorps teachers and students learned to pivot, reflect, and thrive in at-home working conditions, and virtual working environments. Thanks to collaborations like the Handmade Arcade Virtual Marketplace, and exposure through student-voice SLB Radio programs, we worked with an ecosystem of like-minded organizations who see the magic in the entrepreneurial experience and are committed to providing it to students and teachers across the region.

EdCorps
There were
648 students running

From welding and wood shops to digital fabrication labs and lumber mills, students and educators have been using tools and their hands to create and build for years. Consequently, skilled trades education (STE) and entrepreneurship are a natural combination.
Since 2017, we've partnered with Harbor Freight Tools for Schools (HFTFS) to support a cohort of skilled trades classrooms looking to formalize their existing work into real entrepreneurial endeavors. Since launching the cohort, we have supported 42 student-led businesses – engineering classes making upcycled furniture, agriculture classes using their woodshop to make environmentally responsible bat boxes, and HVAC classes focused on green energy– just to name a few. Students running businesses in these classes benefit from both technical experience as well as entrepreneurial skill development, both of which we know they need prepare them for college or a career in an evolving workforce.

There are 322 students operating 27 student-run businesses across 14 cities.

As home to the RWS Headquarters, the San Diego community has always been bursting with creativity and initiative, making things happen in the classroom and for the world.
This year was no different, with 20 classes continuing their entrepreneurial journey and running student-led businesses in the midst of a virtual learning environment. Across the region, from North County to Chula Vista, students of all ages developed products and services that could reach their community during this unique time. We’re proud of the students who designed products that promoted conversations around social justice (like VIDA Dreamers and Colorbomb.Co) and those that made light and levity during a dark time, creating commercials and hosting drive through markets. The year has proven what we’ve always known to be true – that challenging times can be a powerful invitation to creativity, collaboration, and the entrepreneurial spirit.

This year was probably our least profitable, in terms of actual dollars.

These interactions certainly enriched the EdCorps experience for my students. They were able to see real people who had a real business doing the same exact things we were doing in class.
It helped make what we were doing more real and more important because we were getting advice from people who were doing these things in real life, not just in a classroom. This makes my students more likely to think they can become a business owner themselves someday.
The connections and the opportunity to present on ReMake Learning Days gave my students an opportunity to reflect on all their success this year. The feedback we got from other school businesses and small business leaders was invaluable.

You know those students who don't seem engaged and when you offer them leadership and hands on tasks they bloom? That is what I got to see over and over throughout the semester. I had one kiddo who started to anticipate the needs of the group and just took on the task without having to be asked. I have several of my students that have natural leadership skills just able to be themselves. They just seemed so comfortable in their skin and at peace.
