This special day focuses on teaching children about the importance of financial education, financial literacy and helping children learn how to save their money.

It was an exciting day today for our Dudley 5th graders as they embark on a new adventure of creating our own Dudley bank branch with Flatwater Bank. Students learned about business ethics, etiquette, interviewing, and designing and selecting a logo. They also had the opportunity to "play some games" which demonstrated leadership skills such as communication and the ability to work together as a team. We look forward to this new initiative for Dudley Elementary! More information to come! Thank you Flatwater staff for spending the afternoon with us.
