This past weekend SCOE partnered with Travis Credit Union to host Mad City Money. Over 75 high school students from across the county participated in this financial literacy workshop where they learned about income, expenses, taxes, creating budgets, and more. It culminated in an app based simulation where students were assigned an occupation, salary, spouse, student loan debt and credit score. They took on the role of adults who had to decide between their wants and needs as they lived and worked in Mad City. The goal is to simulate the realities of approaching financial responsibilities and to teach students the tools needed to make better financial decisions. Thank you to Travis Credit Union for offering this very important workshop for teens! ************************************************* #financialliteracy #lifeskills #realworld
