The High School Enterprise (HSE) project builds on earlier successes with college students and extends that strategy to eight high schools through an after-school program. The project establishes and assesses a model which uses students from grades 9-12 organized into active, applied STEM learning communities focused on client needs. HSE teams participate in "virtual" companies that provide technical services to actual clients and develop products intended for ultimate distribution through the marketplace. HSE team projects are STEM-based with an emphasis on ICT.The program includes eight high schools in Michigan and Puerto Rico that are located in rural, suburban, and inner city communities that have diverse characteristics (all income ranges, high populations of students from underrepresented groups). Deliverables include an HSE model and training manual adaptable by high schools nationally and knowledge about why HSE as an after-school intervention activity has the impact that it does with the targeted student groups in the participating high schools. The proposal team is partnering with ASME, which provides built-in connections with local university student chapters and design teams, to examine one possible model for HSE scale-up. In addition, the team is developing a model for establishing the local sustainable funding that is required to prevent participating high schools from incurring any substantial costs.

高中企业（HSE）项目建立在早期与大学生的成功，并通过课后计划将该战略扩展到八所高中。 该项目建立并评估了一个模型，该模型将9-12年级的学生组织成活跃的应用STEM学习社区，重点关注客户需求。HSE团队参与“虚拟”公司，为实际客户提供技术服务，并开发旨在通过市场最终分销的产品。HSE团队项目以STEM为基础，重点关注ICT。该计划包括密歇根州和波多黎各的八所高中，这些高中位于农村，郊区和内城社区，具有不同的特点（所有收入范围，学生人数众多，来自代表性不足的群体）。 可供参考的内容包括一个HSE模型和培训手册，可在全国范围内适用于高中，以及关于为什么HSE作为一项课后干预活动对参与高中的目标学生群体产生影响的知识。 该提案团队与ASME合作，ASME与当地大学生分会和设计团队建立了内在联系，以研究HSE规模扩大的一种可能模式。此外，该小组正在开发一个建立当地可持续资金的模式，以防止参与的高中承担任何重大费用。
