Finances to be taught to teens

Hello, fellow Pea Ridge family.

As you may know, the Financial Peace class last month was great. Big life changing things happened for many families!. We want to extend those principals for life to our High School students. Thanks to Starner Tax Group, we have been able to purchase the full Dave Ramsey's Foundations in personal finance. It's going to be a lot of fun.

Library hours

Monday-Friday: 9 a.m. until 6 p.m.

Saturday: 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

The curriculum is very interactive. Classes will be 3 - 5 p.m. Sunday, April 30, and meet for the next six weeks.

Upon graduating this course each student will receive a certification for their portfolio. There is a $25 dollar fee but we do have scholarships available. Call or come into the library to sign up.

Spread the word. Together we can help the next generation start their journey to financial freedom, avoid debt, budget with intention, invest and build wealth.
