CEO Kid Khalil Parker: Author & Young Entrepreneur

Dear Friends,

 

Khalil Parker, who attended The Fishing School's 2010 Rising Champions Summer Camp, was interviewed by Raising CEO Kids, an organization that educates, encourages, engages and empowers CEO Kids, the parents raising them, and teachers and civic leaders impacting them.

 

                 Khalil Parker

"Last summer, I attended summer camp at The Fishing School in Washington, DC. This was a really fun camp because they had classes like math, reading, social studies, and art as well as a dance class and an entrepreneur class. One day in the entrepreneur class, we were asked to share our ideas about the type of business we would like to start." - Khalil Parker

  

Khalil discusses his French tutoring company, French with Friends, his book, "In the Midst of Greatness: Celebrating the Men Who Impact My Life," and his plans for the future. 

 

We are extremely proud of Khalil and all of the youth at The Fishing School who we encourage to excel and dream big!
