MSEFCU has partnered with four local high schools to bring student-run high school branches on to their campuses! These branches are conveniently made available to students, staff, faculty, and some community members. This innovative approach to financial education provides those using these branches ways to learn about and conduct their financial transactions in a safe way with access to free or very low-cost financial products and services offered by MSEFCU.
Our student tellers, who are students from each high school, are 'hired' as employees, and operate these branches under the guidance of an MSEFCU Student-Run Branch Supervisor. Each student-teller receives hands-on experience, learning and performing various teller duties and they gain real-world work experience and become financially empowered.
