With the help of many community volunteers who staffed 14 business booths, sophomores at the Waterford High School recently participated in a Real Money Real World simulation. Students were assigned a career for the simulation. They also spent their monthly salary visiting the various booths making spending choices based on their family situation hoping they would have enough money to make ends meet at the end of the month.
The program is a product of OSU Extension and was organized for the school by Bruce Zimmer, 4-H Extension Educator in collaboration with Waterford High School teacher Beth Morris. Here are some pictures of our volunteers that helped out!
