Saving is fun. When you grow up, you’ll have more money. – Ariyah
I like being the bank teller because I get to see the smile on the younger girls’ faces. I like to see them saving their money. I definitely advise them to do it because it will help them with their future life, with college. It’s important. – Ciera
The Best Class All Year
This was the best class all year because we learned how to put on a condom and how to avoid pregnancy and STD’s. This information was good because we would not get this in any other places.

Thank you M.O.M.S.
Thank you Metro Omaha Medical Society for purchasing anatomically correct dolls for our My Girlfriend Zelda classes. It’s surgery day for Zelda. Her surgeons look very competent, don’t they?

Homework
I am writing a paper for Social Studies on Clara Barton. Right now I’m looking up how she helped soldiers. It’s nice to be able to do my homework at Girls Inc.

Abstinence – it’s 100%
I learned that the best way to prevent pregnancy is abstinence. It’s 100% and has no disadvantages.

Parallel Parking
The most memorable time was last Thursday. It was downtown, dark, rainy, and we had to learn how to parallel park in the Old Market. It was soooooo hard! – Denai
Driver’s Ed
Not only does drivers ed help reduce the insurance of teenagers, it makes us aware of the hazards and responsibility out on the streets. – Alysia
It takes a lot of thinking and self control. And yes, it is a bumpy experience. – Jaynesha
Reading “When Donkeys Fly”
It was fun. I loved reading the book “When Donkeys Fly.”
