37 seniors from Shalom Christian Academy got a preview of what life will be like after graduation. On April 6, 2017, the students participated in a Financial Reality Fair where they were given budgeting worksheets based on entry level salaries in careers that they chose for themselves. The students visited booths where they chose everything from housing and furniture to entertainment and pets. Each student also spun the Wheel of Reality where it might be their lucky day and they receive a bonus at work or maybe their car broke down and they’ve got to pay for repairs. After they’ve completed their worksheet, they added up all of their monthly expenses to make sure they were on budget.
