Students will need to register for a program called Every Dollar. Once students go to the site they need to sign. Once they have created an account it will take them to a page where they can make a budget. For your January income put down what you make a month if you have a job. Then go through looking at the different things you spend money on. You can put in what you spend on the different items a month based on your current situation. Tomorrow we will work on a scenario that might be similar to a college or post high school situation. If you don't have a job then put down that make 500 as your income and then see what your expenses are.
Main thing today is to get the kids signed up and have them play with the site for a little while so they know what to do and how to use the site for tomorrow's scenarios.
Let me know if you have any questions or problems with the site today.

The students need to be reshown the Community Scholarship link. We did this last month, but we had seniors complaining about not know information about scholarship and/or not knowing where to go to get information so we are going to show this again. Make sure kids are on task so we don't have them claiming they didn't know where to go. Here is the link

Write a good luck letter to freshman for their first high school finals. Check your box for the template for the letters. Once the seniors have written the letters you can either put them in Mrs. Badalucco's mailbox or bring them to her room. Leadership will be distributing these letters.
