🏦 Our Simmons seventh grade students had a great hands-on series of financial literacy lessons today, courtesy of Regions Bank. Their Next Step Reality Check Workshop is an interactive and engaging way for students to learn about building and balancing a budget. The goal is to make assigned decisions during the course and complete the experience with a budget surplus. During Regions Next Step Reality Check, students are assigned a persona and then select real-life options that will directly impact their budget. If you have a seventh grader, ask them about it after school today! Thank you to Regions and our parent volunteers.
