E CITY was thrilled with its first partnership with John F. Kennedy High School! We thank Tanisha Jackson-Long for introducing the E CITY program to Principal Charita Crockrom. Tanisha, a teacher at JFK, had taught the E CITY program in two other locations, and when she was hired at JFK she decided it was important that the students there have the opportunity for entrepreneurship education, too. Principal Crockrum gave her blessing immediately and was extremely supportive of Tanisha and the program. The students met with Tanisha 4 days a week for almost 2.5 hours each day. Eight students graduated on March 10 with a business plan competition and graduation ceremony
