In CEO, students are told "this class is not hard, but it's work."

Since year one, each CEO student in Vigo County has been given a dollar and has been challenged to think creatively and resourcefully to generate $100 in two weeks. Power washing, babysitting, cleaning golf clubs, and detailing cars...all have been done to generate cash that CEO students can use as seed money for their individual businesses.
By the end, many surpass that $100 goal. Some go a few dollars over that amount and some go over by hundreds.
In 2024, Jamison Miller worked to make almost $2900, and in 2025, Karina Bones generated $1033.

This year's class has until September 23 to work the challenge. We look forward to reporting their success.
Again, it's not hard....but it's work.
