Today, our 7th and 8th grade students participated in a Financial Reality Fair presented by Frankenmuth Credit Union. Students were given real-world scenarios and challenged to make budgeting decisions related to housing, transportation, food, savings, and other everyday expenses. This hands-on experience helped them develop valuable financial literacy skills while gaining a better understanding of the choices and responsibilities involved in managing personal finances. Thank you to Mr. Schian for organizing this event and to Frankenmuth Credit Union, and all of their volunteers who made this engaging learning opportunity possible!
