On behalf of the Personal Financial Literacy teachers, we would like to invite you to volunteer and help run our Reality Check Day. Reality Check Day is an award-winning financial literacy event offered by Educators Credit Union. Reality Check Day offers a 90-minute interactive simulation of what life is like once students leave the classroom and are free to experience the real world. Students go through life’s most important stages and experience financial gains or losses using the Bite of Reality mobile app.
During the session, students are given the option of selecting their occupation, while other areas of their life are randomly assigned, such as credit score, marital status, and if they must pay child support. Each student also decides their retirement age and are tasked with using their budgeting skills to reach this retirement goal.
Here is the schedule for the morning:
7:00 - Arrive/Check-in Opens
7:00-7:30am - Breakfast and Refreshments
7:30-7:45am - Training
8-10am - Reality Check Day in the Suchy Gym
Please let me know if you are willing to help us run this event. We need to secure 20 volunteers and are 8 short to ensure that it runs efficiently for our Juniors.
🚨Looking to get involved? We're still looking for Volunteers!🚨
All EAHS, CCA, and Options 9th-12th graders are invited to join us in the Elkhorn High School main gym at 8 a.m. on Saturday, April 13, for the Great Give Back!

The music students performed at our District Solo & Ensemble Festival this weekend and had a very successful day! There were 20 vocal solos, 9 instrumental solos, and 8 instrumental ensembles that advanced to the State level! Some of our students were involved in multiple performances that advanced to State.
These students will all compete at UW-Whitewater on April 27th for State Solo & Ensemble. Pictures attached of our students who advanced (minus a few who did not make it down for the photo).
