It is a PTSA sponsered program through Washington Mutual. This program is a life lesson for kids. They can learn about saving money, how to use a bank account and learn how to read bank statements. It’s a fun way for kids to learn the value of money. Each student upon proper enrollment receives their own savings account with an initial deposit of .25 cents from WAMU. Then the child can come to banking on Wednesday mornings from 8:10am – 9:00am directly outside of the computer lab. For some students it works best for them to bank before going to class, for others they go to class and then are allowed to go to the banking station. Each teacher has their own preference.
If your child has expressed an interest in being a part of the school savings program please email Cindy Brandt at cindy@corybrandt.com with your childs name and teacher and an information packet will be sent home. Or you can email Cindy with any questions you might have. Enroll your child today and start them saving for their future.
