It's what you've been waiting for!  FFI  II- The Sequel!

For the past 7 years, the KCEE’s blockbuster Financial Fitness Institute I has received hundreds of thumbs-up from teachers across the state. In response to our fans’ demand for more, the KCEE is added FFI II – The Sequel, starring a whole new cast and a financial plot that will leave teachers on the edge of their seats!

Both workshops are set in a two-day schedule from 8:30 - 4:30, middle school and high school teachers will become entwined in a tale of intrigue as the talented cast engages them in curricula from the National Council on Economic Education.  See details below for a link to the curricula description.  Great opportunity for economics, math, business, FACS & gifted teachers.
