This month, hardworking 2nd-6th graders put their financial skills to the test—saving, spending, and donating their hard-earned “money” from classroom achievements. Each quarter, The Alpaugh Family Economics Center at UC’s StEP program helps students make real-world decisions about managing money, with support from volunteers who visit local schools to guide them and celebrate their choices with fun prizes! #personalfinance #moneymanagement #education
