Thank you to Bank of Botetourt for sponsoring this event and for providing our students with financial knowledge! We couldn’t do it without the support of our many volunteers and businesses that assist in our Reality Stores each year! Botetourt County 4-H

We enjoyed assisting the Virginia Cooperative Extension - Botetourt County office with the Reality Store Program at Central Academy Middle School! 💰

The Reality Store Program is designed to provide each student with a simulation of what to expect when they graduate. In the program, students are assigned a career and life plan that includes a monthly income breakdown according to the job, marital status, as well as if they have children and if so, how many.

Bank of Botetourt assisted students by providing financial guidance. We helped them realize the value of understanding their current situation, along with their future, and the importance of saving money.
