Philosophy
The Business Department has two broad objectives: 1) To prepare students academically to enter some form of post-secondary training, and 2) To prepare students to become entry level employees.
In more specific terms, it is our belief that:
- Students should be allowed to progress at their own pace under strict guidelines developed between student and teacher.
- Students should be held accountable for their time and that the time accountability requirement be reflected in their evaluation.
- Students should be trained in the area of appropriate business like attitudes.
- Students are individuals and should be treated as such.
- Students should be able to look to the business department staff as models for professionalism in training, attitude, and appearance.
- Students should be guided and encouraged in their career goals.
- Students should be encouraged to work within and support the American economic system.
- Students should be given an opportunity to gain leadership skills through Future Business Leaders of America. (FBLA)
