According to press release from the Nacogdoches Independent School District, 8 High School students recently completed the EverFi - Financial Literacy Certification provided by Austin Bank.  Those receiving a certificate included: Nicole Skinner, Maria Velasquez, Brenda Lopez, DeAundre White, Shelby Faires, Duncan Farrish, Clay Hayes and Michael (Dre) Brucks.

The EverFi – Financial Literacy program has come to meet the Jump$tart Coalition for Personal Financial Literacy National Standards which made it possible for Austin Bank to provide the program to NHS.  Using the latest technology, EverFi brings complex financial concepts to life. Today’s generation uses this new-media learning platform to earn certification in financial capability, a valuable mark of distinction on resumes and college applications.

Topics in the program included credit score, insurance, credit cards, taxes, investing, savings, 401Ks, and mortgages.  Congratulations to the students on a job well done.
