BHS BUSINESS DEPARTMENT MISSION STATEMENT

 

Beavercreek High School’s Business Department believes business education is an integral part of the total education program. Our mission is to develop and apply current technology, business concepts, personal economic strategies, and legal principles essential for present and future success.

 

Incorporating critical thinking, effective communication, ethical decision making, and social responsibility, the business department believes:

 

¿   Business course offerings serve as the basis for immediate employment, college preparation, future employment, and the life skills necessary for all.

¿   Students should develop and enhance computer skills necessary for success in a technological society.

¿   Students should demonstrate the ability to investigate and retrieve information and communicate these ideas using all available technology.

¿   Career guidance, career orientation, and exploration of job opportunities and requirements in business are important to the business student.

¿   The student experience will be highlighted by personal attention, teamwork, and the understanding of the link between individual, business, and society.
