…The curriculum she and her team developed is being taught to sixth graders across Pinellas County, with plans to have it in seventh and eighth grade classrooms within two years. Lessons include designing glow-in-the-dark food and using drones to understand storms.
The next project for Wood’s Innovation Foundation, which helped developed the science curriculum that is expanding across Pinellas County, is working with the school board to create another Ark center to provide education. It’s modeled after the Enterprise Village, a learning center in the area where middle schoolers pretend to be business owners at a shopping mall as a way to learn economics.

We need a whole lot more job-based training like this, even if it’s sponsored by a Wall Street stock criminal. Skills are TRUTH no matter who pays for the training.
