The 10th year of the Christian County C-E-O, or "creating entrepreneurial opportunities" program for high school seniors, kicked off with the annual orientation Thursday night at the Florinda Pizza meeting room on the Taylorville square.  Some 65 students, parents, and board members reviewed the past 9 years of the program that offers business skills outside of the classroom.

Board secretary Mary DelValle told Regional Radio News after the meeting that the C-E-O program was founded to help teach high school students many soft skills.

DelValle added that after 10 years, the program is proving that C-E-O is an important part of economic development in Christian County.
