Redstone is looking forward to opening its eighth student-run high school branch this fall at Scottsboro High School. is branch will follow the model of the previous high school branches. Student tellers will take deposits, cash checks, handle cash withdrawals, and make money transfers, all done under the supervision of a teacher advisor. "I'm very appreciative of Redstone. I'm very appreciative of the school system thinking outside of the box here and being able to offer these kinds of real-life situations and endeavors to our students," Scottsboro High School Principal Brad Dudley told the Jackson County Sentinel newspaper. "Our students will be the ones running it, so it's a great opportunity both educationally and professionally." In addition to the in-school branch, Scottsboro City School System gets its own affinity debit card. Each time the card is used, the school system earns money. Redstone has released 13 affinity cards for high schools, colleges, and educational organizations since our Schools Program launched in 2017. e cards raised $122,404 in 2022 for those entities.
