Star International is tailored for students who wish to pursue a degree in International Business and/or have plans to operate their own future business.
This class offers real life experiences in an adult world combined with economic theory needed for university study.
Students are in good academic standing, exhibit no consistent disciplinary problems, have excellent attendance records, willing to “work as a serious team member”, and understand work is occasionally done outside of class as needed.
