Two schools in the Coastal Bend are using the Ramsey Education Foundation's Personal Finance curriculum and nine schools are looking into adding it too.
Abbey College in Ramsey has received a donation of more than £2,000 from The Ramsey Foundation to ensure students can access support from mental health.

The Old Dominion frontman is known for giving back to his community.
For many years, he and other Nashville songwriters have put on a benefit concert at the school and his foundation, The Ramsey Foundation, also donates to the local food pantry.
Now, his latest donation of $19,000 has helped create a music studio for the school.
The work was started by teacher-turned-librarian Jim McLeese, who has a passion for music.
A few years ago, McLeese and another teacher visited a school in Northern Virginia that had a music studio in the school.
