The
world of business is dynamic and always growing. Through
our accounting studies we can better measure how well a
company performs financially. We develop and analyze
income statements, balance sheets and other comparative
statements. A focus on business management builds an
understanding of the underlying business principles and
develops an ability to think critically and solve
problems. Through entrepreneurship education, students
gain a clear picture of how to develop and operate a
small business. Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA)
is a national organization for students to further
develop their work-place skills by serving their
community, attending leadership conferences, and
networking among their peers from other towns and
states. We incorporate the internet and explore how it
has leveled the playing field for entrepreneurs both
large and small. We enhance our work by gaining skills
in Excel. Word, Power Point and Quickbooks. Business
Administration trains business people for college
and the workforce of today and prepares them for
tomorrow.
