ELHS Mustangs (12th grader & a few 11th graders) participated in a budgeting simulation on Monday, November 17, 2025 to practice making decisions about spending and saving when it comes to their futures. Students were given a scenario career, income, and some even had children they had to plan their month’s budget around!
Thanks to the many SECU bank volunteers, National Guard rep, LCS Board of Education members, lots of Lincoln County Schools staff and Superintendent, and all of the parent and Trilogy residents who took the time to make this event successful! Also a special shout out to the PTSO for the yummy iced coffee bar and cookies for the students to help motivate them!
