In this Cycle of study, Perspective, students will work to deepen our connection with and grow our understanding of each other. They will also work to identify their sense of purpose. They will use these connections to continue the evolution of our student microeconomy, to better understand its role in our community, and its potential. This cycle includes exploring relationships between businesses and their customers, going on a tour of local businesses to interview owners, gaining understanding about natural resources, learn about other local Montessori Microeconomies, and it wraps up with a rewrite our Farmessori LLC Business Mission Statement.
