Thank You Mabrey Bank for Economics Lessons

A big THANK YOU to John Pixley and Rhonda Bailey of Mabrey Bank who volunteered their time on Tuesday, October 23, to speak with Coach Estep's Economics classes about the banking industry. The lesson included facts about checking, credit cards, debit cards and the various uses of each. John and Rhonda also explained how checking has changed over time and how drastically it was impacted by the attack on 9/11/2001. The students also learned about wire transfers, electronic checking, direct deposit and of course how much easier it is to keep track in 2018 than when Coach Estep was a teenager. The lesson began with trivia and ended with trivia and each of the students left with two gifts and more knowledge.
