Gearing Up for the New School Year

As we soak up the last of these summer days, the RTSWS Team is hard at work preparing for another incredible school year.
Did you know RTSWS has 4 different curriculum sets?
Every summer, RTSWS updates each curriculum with current news headlines, relevant topics and refreshed activities for the upcoming fall sessions. 
During the fall sessions, female financial professionals lead classroom workshops on financial and investment literacy.
