📸 A Different Kind of Classroom Day
Friday looked a little different for our CEO students. Instead of our normal classroom routine, we took our learning on location for a very important part of the CEO experience—professional headshots!
A special thank you to Shaun Voegele of Voegele Photography Studio for sharing his time, talent and expertise with our students.
Students began arriving dressed in their best professional business attire, ready for their individual headshots and, of course, our Class of 2027 group photo!
This is always such a remarkable day—not only because our students are building their professional image, but because it naturally becomes a team-building experience as well. Being outside of our normal environment gives students the opportunity to relax, connect and get to know one another a little better.
At one point, I suggested to a few classmates that perhaps we could interview one another to create some promotional content for our upcoming Fall Meet & Greet on September 17.
That idea quickly turned into the question:
“Can we use the hairspray bottle as the microphone?” 😂
And just like that, we had a plan!
I am excited to see what our students create as they begin sharing their stories, their businesses and their personalities with our community. I’m even more excited for YOU to get to know the incredible young people who make up the CEO Class of 2027.
Our CEO experience is intentionally built around different styles of learning—site visits, guest speakers, classroom work, hands-on Badge Business development, networking and experiences outside the classroom.
And sometimes, learning happens at the park with a hairspray bottle microphone. 😉
A huge thank you to Shaun for giving of his time and talents to help our students put their best professional image forward as they begin building their brands and establishing their presence online.
Each day and each week, we are developing more than future entrepreneurs. We are developing lifelong learners, confident professionals, creative thinkers and future leaders.
Thank you for following along on this fun journey with us!
I can't wait to see what these students come up with for their promotions.
Stay tuned! 👀📸
