Marquette Catholic High School to Launch a Simulated Trading and Finance Lab
Michigan City, Indiana - April 25, 2016 - Marquette Catholic High School announces today their plan to launch a simulated trading and finance lab during the 2016-2017 academic year. The lab will host all finance and business classes that have been added to the college preparatory school's curriculum.
MQT will be the high school leader in affording its students an engaging and hands-on business platform and curriculum in a university finance lab setting.
This coming fall - 2016 - the following business courses will be added to the curriculum: Web Design & Coding, Intro To Business, Microcomputers (CC), Business Law (CC), Business Ethics (CC), Principles of Marketing (CC), Global Finance Trading Lab, and more.
Principal, James G. White states, "We utilized the data garnered from our students' interest surveys from their PSAT to drive this program. The #1 area of interest to study in college, for our students, is business - #2 is health science. We would be remiss, as educators, to ignore this information. It is important that we use it develop and enhance our college preparatory curriculum. It is our hope to be able to offer a post-secondary associates degree to our students, while they are still at MQT. There is so much out there for our students to learn. It certainly is our responsibility to put it all in front of them. We are thrilled to be able to offer this new program to the students of Marquette Catholic High School."
