5th Graders Learn About Small Businesses

5th-grade SAIL math students had two exciting opportunities this month.  Ms. Winslow from Gorham Savings Bank and Kate Dargie from Mow's Munchies stopped by to share their knowledge about small businesses.  

From Gorham Savings Bank, SVP Director of Community Relations Becky Winslow, discussed the relationship between small businesses and banks.  She provided important feedback on the students' food truck business plans.  Students were engaged, excited, and eager to ask questions.  Ms. Winslow was so generous with her time by visiting all three elementary schools.  

The co-owner of Mow's Munchies, Kate Dargie, invited students to tour her food truck.  Kate stopped at Village, Narragansett, and Great Falls elementary schools.  Students asked questions and shared their ideas from their Open a Food Truck projects.  They talked about business plans and what it takes to run a food truck.
