STEM Challenge Lemonade Stand Benefits Mountain Goat Trail
Rising third-grade students worked hard to complete their summer school STEM challenge at Sewanee Elementary by planning their own lemonade stand. Students completed a business plan, taste-tested the lemonade, prepared a cost analysis, designed advertisements, and researched an organization to receive their profits. Because of generous donations, the students were able to contribute the proceeds from the sale, $395.81, to the Mountain Goat Trail Alliance in memory of former SES student, Gus Croom. Thank you to our Sewanee community for your support. Rising third-grader Allie Welch said, “The trail serves as a safe place to ride your bike, and we hope our donation will allow them to continue adding more miles. Also, we know Gus loved mountain biking, so we wanted to support something he loved.”
