WVVA College & Career Prep

Students in Ms. Rudd's Personal Finance course are working on a microcredential in Financial Literacy. Students will be studying budgeting, credit/debt, insurance, employment and taxes, banking all leading towards a credential from EverFi. There is no charge to students to earn this credential and it will be an excellent item to include on digital portfolios, college applications, or job applications.

Students will be completing this microcredential after winter break. Please encourage your student to complete these modules!

If your student is not currently taking Personal Finance but completed the course in the fall, contact Ms. Rudd to find out how to earn the credential.

WVVA would like to see 100% of our high school students graduate with this credential!
