Welcome 2019 - 2020 School Year

A new school year is upon us and I'm very excited to meet each of you! This year is going to be packed with new and exciting things for each of us. I am eager to begin our adventure into the world of Career Preparedness, Accounting, Business Technology Applications, and Personal Finance. I'm privileged to share with you all the intriguing information each has to offer. This is my seventh year as a teacher, and before that, I spent seven years in the business environment. I look forward to teaching you things that you can later apply in the working world.

In Career Preparedness, we will focus on three integrated areas of instruction - academic planning and career development, financial literacy, and technology. While in Accounting, we will explore the basics of financial accounting, including analyzing and recording business transactions, preparing and interpreting financial statements, demonstrating generally accepted accounting principles, and performing banking and payroll activities.  We have access for you to become certified in Quickbooks.  In BTA we will learn all about Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, Excel, and Access and give each of the opportunity to learn national credentials.  In Personal Finance we will learn financial and investment planning procedures by exploring the many different ways to manage money successfully. 

In life, no matter which career path you choose, this information will give you a competitive advantage and hopefully enable you to become very successful in your future endeavors.
