The curriculum worked so nicely with our pop-up pizzeria. The students thoroughly enjoyed the lessons and the content guided us each step of the way. Everything from branding to creating a logo and a slogan, printing materials, budgeting, and carrying out the roles of the business, were a fun and engaging learning experience for all. Thank you again for the excellent material.

One of the standout features of this curriculum is how “plug and play” it is. It has truly simplified my lesson planning, allowing me to focus on facilitating learning rather than spending excessive time on preparation. The Ignite Business Experience is a fantastic option, whether implemented as a standalone elective or integrated into student activities. It provides students with valuable, real-world skills that they can apply in various aspects of their lives. I highly recommend the Celebrate EDU curriculum to any educator looking to empower their students with entrepreneurial knowledge and skills.
