financial literacy

In the course of this program, kids are taught a variety of concepts and skills including balancing a budget, completing a tax return, applying for financial aid and other loans, and exploring lines of credit and types of insurance.

Most students don't have a grasp of what we call "Financial Literacy".

In an effort to better prepare New Jersey high school students for the future, all students in the state are now required to complete a half-year course in economics and financial literacy before graduation.
