Students open their own coffee stand

IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) - January 10, 2011

Students man the Cafe cart at the Iowa City high school.

Teacher Brent DeNeice says students were heading to area coffee shops, so they decided to open an student-run coffee stand.

He says the Cafe uses the talents of students from industrial tech, visual arts, and the food and consumer sciences classes.

A local paper reports proceeds from the Cafe cart have gone to a number of causes, including a local animal shelter and the Mayor's Youth Empowerment Program.
