"I've been teaching this curriculum for about 5 years, and I just ran into a former student who was my cashier at the local grocery store. He graduated 2 years ago, and told me that it was the most useful class he took in high school. He informed me that his mom passed away a week after he turned 18, and since then he's had to manage everything on this own. Although it has been tough, he said he knew what he needed to do to get himself set up well financially - he opted to do an internship instead of formal education, so he could save money on tuition, and he's doing that while he's working full time at a grocery store. He's currently saving money for his emergency fund and will begin contributing to his 401k in the near future. We're changing lives with this curriculum and leaving a legacy around our town that wouldn't have happened otherwise."
