WELCOME TO FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT
3 College Credit course (optional). There is a huge difference between “working for your money” and “having your money work for you”. Students need to get a decent financial education in school, to have a basic knowledge of finance and how to properly manage their money, so they can go off to college and their first careers knowing how to manage their finances, save their money, and invest. Managing money and basic financial skills are necessary to function properly in life, regardless of your career path. As one becomes an adult, with adult responsibilities, one must know how to correctly balance a bank account and understand credit card and loan terms and be able to do simple tax returns. Setting goals, learning to plan to achieve goals, and preparing for one's future should be on everyone’s priority list.

It's Balloons in June time!
For those who may not be familiar with it, this fundraiser is a fun and meaningful way to celebrate graduating seniors while supporting an important school tradition. Similar to graduation lawn signs, families can purchase mylar balloons featuring personalized messages, which are then delivered directly to students.
All proceeds benefit Project Graduation, a safe and supervised event hosted by the NHS PTSA on graduation night from 11:00 PM to 4:00 AM. Seniors enjoy an evening filled with food, entertainment, games, and prizes.
The PTSA partners with a local business to provide the balloons, and volunteers coordinate all deliveries. Families complete an order form and submit payment, which can be mailed in or dropped off at school main offices. We will arrange weekly pickups from the schools on Fridays. Order deadline is June 5th and deliveries are scheduled for June 19th.
