Okaw Valley High School implemented the Dave Ramsey Financial Peace curriculum for our seniors in the fall of 2014. Mrs. Bonnie Scott taught the very first Financial Freedom class and continued teaching the course every year until her retirement in the spring of 2026. Today, the curriculum continues to impact Okaw Valley Seniors.
What started in 2014 with DVDs has continued to evolve with the times. The program transitioned to a digital format just before COVID, allowing us to continue providing this valuable financial education to our students.
Now, more than a decade later, the Financial Freedom class is still going strong! 📈
This course provides our seniors with practical lessons and knowledge about budgeting, saving, managing money, credit, debt, and making responsible financial decisions as they prepare to enter the real world.
We are extremely proud of the longevity of this program and the impact it has had on generations of Okaw Valley graduates. A special thank-you to Mrs. Bonnie Scott for her many years of dedication to teaching our students these important life skill 🐺💙

Yesterday, our Okaw Valley Civics class had the opportunity to get outside the classroom and give back by working with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers on the Illini Trail!
For the past 10 years, Okaw Valley has been proud to partner with the Corps of Engineers on a variety of projects that provide our students with hands-on learning experiences while giving back to our community and the Lake Shelbyville area.
These opportunities allow our students to learn about conservation, natural resources, teamwork, service, and the importance of taking care of the places we call home. 🌲🦺
Okaw Valley greatly values this long-standing partnership and the many opportunities the Corps of Engineers has provided our students over the years. We are thankful for their continued support, collaboration, and commitment to our students!
A special THANK YOU to the Corps of Engineers for another great day of learning and service!
🐺 Okaw Valley — Learning Beyond the Classroom!
