Our 8th grade students will be creating and marketing a beverage, as part of their quarter 4 PBL. They have created a survey with the help of their Math teachers to analyze the data and help them with their product design and business plan.

Please help them by taking the this survey and sending it to your relatives and friends. Several age groups are appreciated: https://forms.gle/UmS5bct9rZYabm1b6
