Yesterdays City National Bank “Signing Night” was a huge success! Our students had the opportunity to open their very own savings accounts, marking an exciting first step toward building strong financial futures.

We are so thankful for our partnership with City National Bank and their dedication to supporting our students beyond the classroom. Opportunities like this help students learn real-world financial skills and show them that their community believes in their success.
