Dollar Scholars rolled out its first pilot event on Sunday March 3rd. Dollar Scholars organizers and volunteers came
+ together to test out the curriculum, and conduct a practice run for the content we will teach future beneficiaries.
+ Dollar Scholars teachers (and organizers) Arjun, Haider, and Jake taught the class, which lasted about 90 minutes.
+ Not only did we execute a successful test of our core concept, but also everyone had
+ a really good time. We gained a few insights about curriculum and
+ teaching style, and we hope to have more concrete updates on those topics
+ down the road!

+ We held our test run in the Economics Department at American University. The Economics Department also provided
+ material support by printing the materials used in the class. Volunteers of all backgrounds participated, including professors, students,
+ and one participant brought their grandfather to learn about finance. We feel his participation proves you
+ are never too old to be a student! Thanks again to all of our organizers, volunteer participants, and supporters!
