“When we got to the ”Practice for the Real World” session I told them they were either going to love it or hate it. This session was a lot like the game of Lifethey would be given a sheet that outlined thier income, their family & their bills. One student, who struggles with addiction & usually sleeps during class was fully engaged in this lesson. He spent the entire hour paying bills & balancing his money. This was a valuable lesson that he enjoyed & that will stick with him!” - TNT
