WINTER 2022 ShowCase winners
Results from our WINTER
virtual Showcase
SCH Academy's Center for Entrepreneurial Leadership (CEL) Capstone class—a unique, self-directed project-design experience—launched its second virtual showcase during the COVID-19 pandemic. These sophomores participated in a 48-hour virtual showcase where their products, designs, and ideas were open for public voting.
Below are the winners in various categories that were evaluated by our CEL faculty, a popular vote, and judges' awards that were selected by an outside pool of entrepreneurial experts.
Thanks to all who voted, participated, and supported our young entrepreneurs!
For a student in high school to have a full semester to have the opportunity to work on something they are really passionate about—there is nothing else like it.
Former Capstone Student
The Sands Award
Awarded in honor of former Head of School Dr. Priscilla Sands, this honor is given to the student or student team whose project embodies all four entrepreneurial pillars: Resiliency, Opportunity Seeking, Resourcefulness, and Creativity. In addition, this prize considers commitment and execution. It is awarded to a student or student team that truly went above and beyond expectations. Like the resiliency prize, this would ideally be awarded to a student team that plans to continue their work beyond the Capstone program.
Mindset Awards
These students embodied the resilience, resourcefulness, and adaptability that define an entrepreneurial problem solver.
- Infinity Prize for Resiliency
- Delphi Opportunity Seeking Prize
- MacGyver Resourcefulness Prize
