We are excited that Southern Bancorp will be bringing the school savings program at both Cabe Elementary School buildings this year. If you have a child that will be attending CES and they don’t have a savings account yet, stop by Southern Bancorp. We also sent forms home with each child, you can fill the form out and return it to the school or bring it by the bank. This is a great program and the response in Gurdon since the program started has been amazing! We look forward to helping your child save this year.
