Race to the Top

The World Series is in full swing, and the Yankees hopefully will capture their 27th World Championship later this week. However, a more important piece of good news comes straight from my Economics 3rd period class- they're in 7th and racing to the top of the standings!

What am I talking about? The annual Stock Market Game Capitol Challenge, of course! Our sponsor is Representative Richard Myers from our Illinois House district. Economics has two SuperTeams involved in the Stock Market Game, where they buy and sell stock with $100,000 just as they would in real life! Many congratulations are in order for:

SuperTeam 1: Daniel S., John H., Brian D., Dalton H. and Joey S.

SuperTeam 2: Jacob, Alex, Dalton, Bhrea, and Cassie

Congratulations! They are in 7th and 9th place, respectively, and have plenty of time to continue their march to the top. They currently have gained over $1,200 in the Stock Market Game so far this year - great job!
