"We came up with a business plan. We had to figure out where it was, how much it was going to cost, employees for a year. And then we had field trips during the time," said Crystal.
In addition to helping her peers, Crystal has found that she has a talent for teaching much younger minds. She also volunteers at her church.
"I think I can sometimes connect with them. It's just fun to be around them," said Crystal.
With the small ones, Crystal has a different motivation to help.
"There's always going to be like more - I guess you could say - to do with younger kids as far as the learning activities and how you teach them. And they're younger, so they need to know and learn a lot more," said Crystal.
Crystal gets great satisfaction when she helps educate. That feeling will fit perfectly with her possible teaching career.
"It's pretty exciting. I like to know I helped someone learn or maybe understand something better," said Crystal.
Whether a career in commerce or curriculum, Crystal has success ahead of her. She is our "Cool Kid."
