EES, Inc. has Three Programs we offer Middle Schools 

1)       So Who Wants to be a Millionaire, 1ST LEVEL LESSONS.  This was our first program, aimed at the 5th grade and has had the most development.  It is planned for three lessons per class and taught by Financial Professionals from the local community.  Generally this program is used as a supplement to the Math program.  There are no home work assignments and a Resource Packet, that will be used during the actual classes, is supplied for each student.  This program can be used in a "standalone" mode.

2)       So Who Wants to be a Millionaire, 2ED LEVEL LESSONS.  This is intended to work with the 5^th grade edition, repeats most of the same themes but presents the information in a new format. There are no home work assignments and a Resource Packet, that will be used during the actual classes, is supplied for each student.  This program can be used in a "standalone" mode. Where as the 5^th grade edition presentation is all positive, for the 6^th grade, 2ed Level Lessons, much of the information is presented as an issue with a potential solution. This is our newest program and we are very pleased with the initial response.

3)       My Saving Plan has been used as an addition to the Millionaire program and will not work as a “standalone”.  Students that have gone through the Millionaire program will understand budgets.  We ask the students to create a formal written plan to earn money, a budget to save a portion of that money and an amount for a savings goal.  While most students are prepared do the preceding, most are stopped when we tell them that they need to actually do the plan.  The students are expected to do this activity out of the classroom and keep in touch with us over the summer vacation.  Changes in the plan are expected.  The winning individual must have a good plan, must work to execute on that plan, must adapt as the real world interacts with the plan and be good at communication so we are kept informed. The amount saved is less critical than the process.  This is a job, and not a drawing or chance situation.  The compensation has been a $1000 custodial account, for which the student will be responsible for all taxes.
