Penn Hills Charter School of Entrepreneurship
The Penn Hills Charter School of Entrepreneurship will provide a hands-on, engaging program designed to bring entrepreneurial and economic concepts alive for students. The lessons related to the core elementary school curriculum of science, math, social studies, and language arts will incorporate the basic economic and entrepreneurial concepts. Young entrepreneurs produce goods and services, elected officials establish laws, Crime Stoppers keep the peace, judges arbitrate disputes, and reporters track down stories. All citizens earn wages in the school’s “inventive” currency, invest in product ideas, deposit and borrow money from “inventive” banks, and pay taxes, tuition and rent.
