On some middle school and high school campuses, parents form an organization where they meet together monthly to strategize how they can get their kids through college debt-free. (The free, step-by-step resources on my website make great discussion material for a group like this.)
Sometimes, this parent group gives birth to a student group that ends up changing the students, the school, the local community, and the world.
(And as a side effect, provides great material to write about in scholarship applications.)
Parents, teachers, and school staff: if you need curriculum for starting up a student club like this, take two minutes and watch this powerful, inspiring video about WE ACT here.
