Businesses abound at Rehoboth Elementary market day

Students create government, currency and even pay taxes in mini society
June 9, 2022

Business was booming at Rehoboth Elementary June 2, as third-grade students set up their shops and games for market day.

Teacher Kristine Wood said students were tasked with creating a perfect society. They elected town officials; created currency and jobs; paid taxes, electric bills and business licenses; authorized a police officer to write tickets, and had a lot of fun in the process.

To celebrate their perfect mini society, students offered their products and services for sale to the community in hopes of making a profit.
