Logansport Savings Bank announces new financial literacy partnership with LHS
Logansport Savings Bank (LSB) is proud to announce a new partnership with Logansport High School to support the implementation of Indiana’s upcoming financial literacy graduation requirement, which will take effect for the 2026–2027 school year.
Through this partnership, Logansport Savings Bank will provide funding and collaborative support to help Logansport High School integrate a financial literacy curriculum into its classroom instruction—ensuring students are equipped with essential, real-world money management skills before graduation.
As part of the initiative, Logansport Savings Bank has pledged the necessary funding over five years to assist with the purchase and sustainability of the school’s selected financial literacy curriculum. In addition to financial support, bank staff and loan officers will partner with educators to enhance the learning experience through guest presentations and real-world financial insights.
“This partnership reflects our deep commitment to the future of our community,” said Chad Higgins, President & CEO of Logansport Savings Bank. “Financial literacy is one of the most important life skills a student can develop. By working alongside Logansport High School, we have the opportunity to make a meaningful and lasting impact—helping students build confidence, make informed decisions, and prepare for financial success beyond the classroom.”
The partnership model was designed with flexibility in mind, allowing schools to choose the curriculum that best fits their existing teaching framework while benefiting from local support and resources.
“At Logansport High School, we are always looking for ways to better prepare our students for life after graduation,” said Michael Miller, LHS Principal. “This partnership with Logansport Savings Bank allows us to bring high-quality financial education into our classrooms while connecting students with professionals who can share real-world experiences. We are grateful for their investment in our students and our school.”
Financial literacy education has become an increasing priority nationwide, with a growing emphasis on ensuring students graduate with a practical understanding of topics such as budgeting, saving, credit, and financial decision-making.
As a community bank, Logansport Savings Bank views this initiative as a natural extension of its mission to strengthen the financial well-being of the communities it serves. “Education is one of the most meaningful investments we can make,” Higgins added. “We’re proud to partner with Logansport High School and look forward to expanding this opportunity to other schools in our region.”
