Congratulations to Lyons Middle School 8th grader Aaliyah Gonzalez who was named one of only 15 middle school and high school students statewide to qualify for a wildcard position in the state finals of the Kansas Entrepreneurship Challenge (KEC) to be held on April 17 in Manhattan. The KEC is sponsored by Network Kansas, Kansas State University Research & Extension, and Kansas State University Center for the Advancement of Entrepreneurship to promote entrepreneurship and small business development in Kansas. The competition is for student-created, managed, and owned ventures. Aaliyah was judged based on her submission of an entrepreneurship plan and a video pitch. You can watch her video pitch at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KDjMKvWqwXw. Good luck at the state competition, Aaliyah!
