Class Description

This class will provide students with a fun, hands-on life simulation allowing them to be in the driver’s seat of their financial future. Each student will be able to make his/her own major life choices such as career, car, housing, spouse, investments, etc. They’ll not only learn by making weekly budgets, they’ll also live it as they see how their individual choices affect their overall financial outcomes. This curriculum will count as the economics/personal finance credit for high school.
