Now Open – “The Edge”

Last Friday, I has the opportunity to preview our new school store.  The store opened on Monday after months of research and re-design.  The store is located near the Commons in the High School and for years has been know as the T-N-T (This and That) – with the re-design the store has a  new name, “The Edge”.

The store is different than in the past – it reminds me of Ikea with a coffee shop feel.  It has a nice flat screen TV and Rock Band for customers to play while in the store. They have popcorn, snacks and drinks along with school apparel.

The next time you are at the High School check it out. They are open before and after school and even if they are closed you can look in the windows.  The store is operated by the South West & Washtenaw Consortium involving our Marketing students.

Our Marketing teacher, Ms. Christy Synowiec would like to “thank By Design Interiors, Freedom Designs, Ikea of Canton, Sam’s Club and my marketing class advisory committee members for their commitment to working with the students on this project since May (Representatives from Norfolk Homes, Jaust Consulting Partners, Diver’s Incorporated, By Design Interiors, Rockwell Automation, MediaEdge Advertising Agency, Eastern Michigan University, alumni students, parents and current students).”
