Mrs. Reynold's classes had, former Marion Patriot & special guest, Sarah Bolton Stone from U of A to talk with the students. Get Real-Here’s the Deal! is a hands-on experiential simulation that gives young people the
opportunity to experience their future in a financial decision-making mode. Youth are
encouraged to make wise financial lifestyle choices similar to those that adults face each month.
As youth move from station to station they make decisions based on their family size and
affordability. The sessions include financial management lessons, a personal finance
simulation, and a follow-up/evaluation discussion.
