Spotlight on: Financial Literacy Day 2023

Juniors and Seniors participated in Financial Literacy Day co-led by Board of Trustee, Jay Allen, and colleague, Liz Robinson. The day consisted of learning about college financing, budgeting 101, what the stock market is, and the how and whys of credit cards! Cathedral students gained valuable insights throughout the day, preparing them with real life financial scenarios to think about and learn from.

A group of 30+ professionals from the finance world volunteered their time to meet with our students over lunch and answer any questions they had about finances.
