Working to Help High School Students Understand the Financial Implications of Dropping Out of School

Area Rotarians are taking their “Stay in School” curriculum to schools to drive home the message that education pays.

A team of volunteer presenters have been going out to area schools to talk to all freshmen students. Through interactive presentations, Rotarians facilitate discussions on earning potential based on level of education. The presentation includes a real-world example of budgeting based on monthly income.
