Another high-powered, educational field trip is taking place for our fourth grade

students on Wednesday, May 14. Fourth graders will travel by bus to the

University of Cincinnati to take part in a large-scale economics simulation that

they've been working on in-class for some time entitled the StEP or Student

Enterprise Program. This is an entrepreneurial fair that several schools around

the city take part in at UC each year.

Students create their own communities and economies within their classrooms

and then market the products that they develop and produce to other classes

and to other schools at the culminating event in May at UC at the StEP

marketplace fair. Our students will also have the opportunity to tour the UC

campus a bit and see what a university is all about. Again, we'll need a 10:1

student:adult ratio, so if you're interested in being a chaperone for this event,

please contact the WWES main office at 619-2490.
