Reagan team finishes in first place in regional Stock Market Game

Three students from Reagan High School finished first in the western regional of the Stock Market Game.

The Stock Market Game is a financial educational activity. Teams of up to five students invest a hypothetical $100,000 in real stocks, bonds and mutual funds. In the process, they learn cooperation, communication and leadership as they manage their portfolios.

More than 700,000 students take part in the game nationally, and Reagan's team of sophomore Roy Dennis, junior Sam Elliott, and senior Garrett Riddle came in first in the western region of North Carolina. They grew their $100,000 to $121,701 - a return of 19 percent.
