“Students that I haven’t even seen smile in class were engaged and having a good time, which was really fun to see.”

“I have gotten nothing but positive feedback from students. Even students that typically don’t participate seemed to be engaged and enjoying themselves.”

Teacher

“Everything went so smoothly, students were engaged, and volunteers had a great experience. Nice work! It is fun to see students asking questions and making connections on how they should spend money….and this is from students who don’t always engage.”
