The recognition was in honor of BCS’s recent state award for the HomeTrust Bank Financial Literacy Calendar. The 2010-2011 school calendars, which include financial education tips, are sponsored by HomeTrust Bank. The calendar is the official BSC calendar and contains all school system events and holiday information. A calendar was provided to all BSC students at the beginning of the school year.

As part of their community partnership, HomeTrust Bank financial education employee volunteers are also teaching a savings class to 3rd graders throughout the BSC system. The class helps students understand the difference between wants and needs and provide them with life skills to help their families better manage their money.
