"An Oasis in the Desert".
Watch this 8 minute video detailing the beginnings of the Xposure Science, Technology, Finance and Employment Institute for Youth. Listen to Executive Director Raymond L. Thomas Jr. talk passionately about why he felt the need to create an outside the box educational program that exposes children as young as 5 yrs. of age to bank books, science, technology, employment skills and the stock market.
Listen to parents like Ms. Tracy Brown, Mr. C.D. James and PS 81 Principal Ms. Cheryl Ault talk about how a program like Xposure can help change the fortunes of our young people as well as the communities in which they live.
"It is my belief that our number one job as teachers, parents and a community is to expose our young people to the infinite number of opportunities they have to become productive, successful citizens in this great country".

XPOSURE'S P.S 81 STOCK MARKET BOOT CAMP
By Sage Barbuto
Recently in Xposure, we have started to learn about the stock market through Mr. Thomas’s Xposure Stock Market boot camp. In this boot camp, we studied different companies and learned about what they do and how much they make.
We have learned how to explore websites like www.cnbc.com to find out a number of things. For example, how much a company makes, the industry they are involved with, the market cap and closing price. We discovered what the ticker symbol was and who the CEO's are for these companies.
