8th Grade Students Explore Personal Finance
As part of their financial literacy class, 8th grade students had the opportunity to participate in activities at Junior Achievement of Central Iowa which allowed them to explore 14 different areas of budgeting, ranging from groceries to transportation to vacations to eating out.
With the help of volunteers, students learned about each of these areas and were able to generate a budget based on an individual life scenario. This experience was truly eye-opening for them, as they realized just how expensive certain items and services can be. The program has been a fantastic addition to classroom learning and has helped students to better understand financial literacy.
The district’s partnership with Junior Achievement has been an excellent addition to classroom learning and this example is part of a larger, K-12 approach to financial literacy. Other activities include BizTown for 6th graders, and volunteers visiting K-5 classrooms to discuss work readiness, financial literacy, and entrepreneurship.

Help Keep Our Schools Safe
School safety is a top priority at Bondurant-Farrar. Many precautions are in place and we continue to enhance and improve our safety and security protocols to ensure a safe, positive environment for all. An important piece in our proactive approach is encouraging students, families, and community members to report past, present, and possible threats to and within our school community.
You may utilize several resources to report suspicious activity, including law enforcement, school district, and statewide reporting tools. Creating a safe learning environment is our highest priority, and it starts with early detection of potential threats. See something, say something, do something!
