New Video on High School Students Who Run Banks
Branching Out, a new video release from the Sargent Shriver National Center on Poverty Law, shows the real-life story of high school students running bank branches in their schools. Those branches are the Curie Branch of Park Federal Savings Bank at Curie Metro High School in Chicago and the Cardinal Branch of Mitchell Bank at South Division High School in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

Curie Branch of Park Federal Savings Bank at Curie Metro High School in
Chicago and the Cardinal Branch of Mitchell Bank at South Division High
School in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
The video illustrates how bank branch programs are offering high school students real-world work experience, financial skills, and assets and strengthening their career ambitions. The student-run bank branches are located inside public high schools with high Latino, African American, and immigrant populations.
The video also features the Boys and Girls Club of the Mississippi Valley in Moline, Illinois. Local business leaders plan a full-service bank branch staffed by Boys and Girls Club youth and thus expand the concept of student-run banks beyond the walls of a school to teen centers.
