Before our seniors head-off to new endeavors beyond TL, they will have the opportunity to learn about financial literacy and philanthropy in a two class workshop, sponsored by Amanda Weitman, Senior Vice President, Wells Fargo Private Bank and Marin Community (MCF) Foundation. Financial literacy will cover the nuts and bolts of personal finance, budgeting, understanding your personal banking, and how loan decisions are made; as well as, understanding what a FICO score is and what it means. Our Philanthropy class lead by MCF explores the historical context of philanthropy and the  role philanthropy plays in society today. What is philanthropy? How is it practiced? And what are the benefits to the giver and the receiver? Students will wrap-up with a real-world example of philanthropy in action which will end with the granting of $1,000 to a local nonprofit organization. This will be the second year of this enrichment program generously supported by Amand Weitmand and Marin Community Foundation.

Next year TLHS will be participating in a dynamic, hands-on, civic education program for students in Washington DC.  On Wednesday April 22nd at 6pm in room 410, a representative will be here to introduce you to the Close Up program and the trip planned for the Spring of 2016.  There will be discussion about the trip cost, trip dates, fundraising and other program logistics. Students from past years have gone and enjoyed the experience.
