On Jan. 25, students who will work in the eight Allegacy
Federal Credit Unions that operate in Winston-Salem/Forsyth County High Schools
met at the Allegacy headquarters for a training session to give them hands-on
practice with the procedures they will need to follow when reporting to work.

In 2008, Allegacy began the first student-run credit
union in North Carolina at Reagan High School. It now also has branches at
Glenn, John F. Kennedy, Mount Tabor, North Forsyth, Reynolds, West Forsyth and
Atkins Academic & Technology High School.
Each high school credit union is operated by students
with a teacher liaison. Students in a particular class work in the credit union
at varying times and get class credit along with other benefits such as real
work experience, financial education, and credit union products and services,
and preparation for financial wellness for the next phase of their lives.

These branches allow
students and teachers to learn more about membership and what it means to be an
Allegacy owner. They open accounts, make deposits and withdrawals and offer
products to help our members make smart financial choices. The students who
work are volunteers and receive class credit for their time.
Before reporting to
work at the branch, students attend a training session at the headquarters
where Allegacy staff members help assimilate the students into the Allegacy
culture and give them hands-on practice with the procedures they will need to
follow when they report to work.
Students at West Forsyth and Reagan were not able to attend this session.

In addition to
offering students real work experience, financial education, and credit union
products and services, Allegacy offer several ways to help our student members
prepare for financial wellness for the next phase of their lives.
·
Scholarships! What
better way to afford college than to have the price tag trimmed? An Allegacy scholarship can
help you do just that!
·
Budget Planning: If
you are just starting out and looking to plan ahead, Allegacy can help
establish a realistic savings goal. If you already have a specific target in
mind, we can guide you down the best path toward savings and the bigger prize,
a diploma.
·
Education Loans: We
also offer three loans to assist with expenses related to attending college
— two Student Loans and a
Computer Loan.
