Helping Hands
All Helping Hands students will earn credit in Social Science
and Business through the operation of a student-maintained
business. Students learn how to plan, promote, create and
provide services to the community. They use computers and
other business machines and procedures to conduct daily
business transactions. Students learn public relations skills
and learn to work in a cooperative manner with co-workers,
supervisors, and customers. Grades are based on classroom
performance, record keeping, participation at the worksite,
attitude, and willingness to work. Since worksite grades
are based in part on daily participation, daily attendance is
important to student success.
