The Premier Curriculum for Teaching High School Students about Money
Eighty-nine percent of teens want to learn how to make their money grow. Yet, for decades, very few schools have
provided any type of money-management instruction. That's why we created Foundations
in Personal Finance —a turn-key curriculum designed to provide students with sound
financial principles that will guide them into adulthood.
Personal finance expert Dave Ramsey will educate and entertain students as they learn how to
avoid debt and build wealth. This course meets
benchmarks and
standards in all 50 states, as well as the national standards suggested by the Jump$tart Coalition for
Personal Financial Literacy.
