Last Friday, the Red Cloud Business Department held a business competition, aka the SHARK TANK.

Eight students participated: seniors Ryan Hussman, Kristian Big Crow, Genriel Ribitsch, Brannon Cousin, and William Belt and juniors Myriam Rama, Jamie Richards, and Bailey Clifford.

The purpose of the Shark Tank competition was to apply what the students learned through Accounting and other Business classes.

Each participant went to Eben Hall to present his or her business plan on their own business idea in front of judges from Sioux Falls. Every participant did a really great presentation.

“It felt great and boosted my confidence even more to know that the judges who are successful businessmen and businesswomen liked my presentation and business idea,” Hussman said.

The Shark Tank competition started around 2nd period and ended before 6th period.

The winners are as follows:

1st: Kristian Big Crow

2nd: Ryan Hussman

3th: Myriam Rama and Jamie Richards

The 1st and 2nd placers earned an iPad. The 3rd placers earned $100. Each participant earned a $25 gift card.
