Business Brief - Framingham School Stores

Business Name	Fuller Express and Walsh Replay
Year Founded	2007
Nature of Business	Retail Stores
School Partner	Fuller Middle School and Walsh Middle School, Framingham School District Ann Karagosian
Summary	In September 2007, YEA began building its first middle school businesses with the Framingham Middle Schools. Eleven students at each school are opening and running a school store. These stores, Fuller Express and Walsh Replay, sell school supplies, small personal items and school pride wear. These middle schoolers are beginning the YEA experience more than 3 years earlier than YEA's high school population. Over the next five years, YEA will assess whether beginning business ownership in middle school makes a difference in the academic and social performance of teens, as well as their aspirations and ability to reach personal goals.
FY08 Sponsors	U.S. Department of Education, 21st Century Community Learning Centers grant Additional sponsorship opportunities available.
