About this Event
AP What? Interest Rates Simplified
Understand how interest really works — and how it impacts your money in real life.
The Coop continues its FREE Teen Financial Literacy Series designed for homeschoolers and students seeking alternative learning options (ages 13–19).
This monthly series helps teens build real-world money skills they aren’t always taught in school — from budgeting and banking to credit, loans, and investing.
Whether you're saving, spending, borrowing, or thinking about your future — understanding interest is one of the most important financial skills you can learn.
