Money Management
Students at Monroe Central Jr. Sr. High School, Parker City, participated in a project using the LTG lesson Be the Change: Life Skills Lesson 3, Money Management. Utilizing $250 from an INSPIRE3 mini grant, students determined an item (bake sale/bracelets, craft, etc.) to sell at a local event of their choice. All proceeds were donated to the Secret Families of Randolph County to help families in need. According to teacher Renee Haney, “Student Voice is a large component. They collaborated and compromised to carry out all aspects of the SLP. They learned and observed that quiet service to others is just as rewarding as being in the spotlight. This project allowed all students to have a voice in one capacity or another.”
