Entrepreneurship Student in the Coloradoan


From: Coloradoan, Feb 8, 2014, by Bob Nightwalker
In my 6th Hour Entrepreneurship, I have a group of three students who sit in the back and are all friends. They are good kids, getting their work in and doing good work, too! They are all members of Future Business Leaders of America and DECA, a high school organized marketing program. One of those is Tallon Nightwalker.

In class, his business plan is to organize and operate a wildlife rehabilitation center. He told me that he works with animals and there currently isn't a program in Fort Collins anymore. His plan is thoughtful and interesting, and he is smart and capable of following through with his plan.

Just last week, Mr. Long showed me the following article in the Coloradoan about Tallon and his father. His passion and his efforts are commendable, and if he continues on his path, I think he will be very successful in this endeavor. These are the students that make teaching worthwhile.

You can read more about Tallon and his father at the link below.

  1. Great story! This kid is amazing. Seems like he know what he wants to do. Direction is just as important as motivation and he knows it.
