Attention Parent Volunteers!!!!

We are preparing to host our Reality U Financial Literacy Experience on October 12th, 2022.  Reality U brings a bit of “reality” to students, teaching them about personal finance interactively and engagingly.  Students imagine their life as a 26-year-old and complete an online lifestyle survey, including questions about their occupation, marital status, use of credit cards, and current grade point average.  We are looking for volunteers to serve in one of our twelve booths that represent services and/or products that adults typically must purchase or consider each month.  If you are interested in participating please click the sign-up genius link below to select a time to help facilitate this experience for our 9th-grade Wildcats.  If you have further questions please contact Mr. Kirkland.
