INTRODUCING MONEY SCHOOL
Your child is invited to join our new and exciting program – Money School, an engaging and educational program that prepares students for a lifetime of financial wellness. It’s empowering to make smart choices with money, the results of which can make a major difference in life. Sometimes however, it takes a little education to know what’s financially savvy – and what’s not. We have several features to engage, educate and excite children to want to learn more about how they can be successful with their finances today and in years to come.
As a true community bank, Country Bank’s mission includes building a solid economic foundation for our region. That commitment is why we focus on delivering world-class products and services to families and businesses. Providing education on financial matters is also part of our mission, which is why we partner with local schools to improve the financial literacy of the next generation. Country Bank is made to make a difference in Financial Literacy.
Financial Literacy Tool
We think education is one of the most rewarding investments
Banzai! is a virtual online-world where children learn valuable financial knowledge through real-life scenarios and activities! Kids learn more when they’re having fun and students become like a sponge, soaking up important lessons through blogs, quests, and earning real-life rewards!
Country Bank team members throughout our markets will offer age-appropriate in-classroom teaching upon request. These classes allow us to support our 40+ partner schools to help educate on the importance of being financially fit at an early age. We began this program in the Fall of 2023 with a streamlined process for requesting classes and a curriculum outline of courses available.
Financial Literacy Classes
Empower your students with real-life money management skills by requesting a free, customizable financial literacy class. Our team will visit your classroom and lead an engaging, age-appropriate lesson tailored for your students.
