CEO is not just a great high school experience. Alumni say it is one of the most relevant learning opportunities they had.

According to a 2024 CEO alumni study by the Midland Institute for Entrepreneurship:
• 83% rated CEO as more relevant than other entrepreneurship education
• 76% rated CEO as more relevant than other real-world learning experiences
• 97% would recommend CEO to other students

As we work toward the goals of Transforming Tomorrow Together: Southern MN 2040, programs like CEO play a pivotal role — cultivating talent, inspiring leadership, and building the innovative mindset our communities need to thrive.

Together, we’re not just preparing students for tomorrow — we’re building it.
