Affy Tapple Sales at the MKC






Our scholars wanted a way to raise funds for the Center. This was a unique opportunity to give these high school scholars decision-making responsibilities. The Team Leaders (a group of teams that volunteer in a leadership function here at the MKC) had a meeting with Ms.Quinn yesterday about the logistics of doing an Affy Tapple Fundraiser.

The student leaders picked four products to sell, and the prices at which to sell them. They engaged in serious discourse about ideas they will discover later in economics classes. They talked about supply and demand, price and profit margins, and how to market the sale to their peers.

Overall, this was an important exercise in fiscal responsibility and responsible decision-making. The scholars exercised great judgement, a respect for the ideas expressed by their peers, and the dedication to a commitment they made.

Affy Tapple sales start this week at the MKC!
