School caisse

The Laurentian school caisse service is an educational service sponsored by the Caisse populaire Desjardins du Piémont Laurentien. This service teaches kids about savings and cooperative values and is offered to parents whose children are in elementary school. These parents have the option to register their child for the school caisse. The goal of the school caisse is to help kids develop savings and money-management skills. The school caisse provides several learning tools. All schools need to do is to use the service to help their students develop cooperative skills.
