Together, we invest in young minds and create experience beyond our years.YELL's flagship program enhances student learning experiences in pre-existing courses, such as Entrepreneurship 12 or E-Commerce 12. Students who complete these courses receive credits towards their high school graduation, gain experiences that are invaluable for broad-based university applications and admissions, and build relationships and connections with leaders in their community.In general, all YELL courses - Give students credit towards their graduation - Feature cutting edge stories and ideas.
