What is the class like?

Class is generally a hard working and quiet environment. We have one 15 minute break for us to stretch our legs and converse with other students from the Career Center. We also have other times for meetings. One of which is BPA (Business Professionals of America). Twice a month for 30 minutes we spend for each meeting. In BPA we discuss competitions, fundraisers, and many other things that will all ultimately lead up to us going to Regional, State and National competitions.
