On Wednesday, April 29, 2026, Shullsburg High School Personal Finance students attended the annual Southwest Wisconsin Interactive Financial Literacy Event (SWIFLE) at the Lenz Center at Southwest WI Technical College, hosted by twelve area school districts and staffed with area community business leader volunteers.
SWIFLE is an interactive hands-on experience for high school students designed to demonstrate the importance of sound money management skills. SWIFLE provides an opportunity for students to connect with community business representatives in an authentic situation where students test their budgeting skills. Based on their chosen career and randomly drawn marital status and family, students are asked to make a month’s worth of financial decisions, make deposits, make payments, and balance their accounts. Students make consumer choices about housing, transportation, insurance, retirement investments, credit cards, childcare, phone, internet, cable, gas, electricity, water, groceries, gasoline, clothing, personal items, household items, pets, entertainment, and recreational vehicles based upon the monthly pay earned from their chosen career.

When the weather changed our plans, our students didn’t miss a beat. The Middle School Glow Dance may have moved to Sunday afternoon, but the energy was just as bright- dancing, games, limbo, and musical chairs included! Proud of this group for making the most of every moment.
